Harper's Bazaar Kazakhstan

Jul 2025

The Secret Garden for Harper's Bazaar Kazakhstan is a sprawling fashion editorial that juxtaposes high-concept couture against the raw, organic geometry of a manicured outdoor estate. Photographer and art director Olga Rubio Dalmau employs natural light to bridge the gap between synthetic metallic fabrics and the surrounding topiary, creating a series that feels both polished and grounded. The imagery leans into a tactile, earthy aesthetic, pairing structured tailoring and voluminous tulle with the weathered stone and lush foliage of the garden setting. With hair and makeup styling by Nieves Elorduy, the shoot emphasises a clean, intentional look that allows the complex textile details—from crochet knits to quilted denim—to take center stage. The result is a series of portraits and still lifes defined by their atmospheric, soft-focus composition.
