Harper's Bazaar Serbia Man

Mar 2026

In the latest fashion editorial for Harper's Bazaar Serbia Man titled New Perspective, photographer Damien Krisl masterfully captures the intersection of structured menswear and the grit of the urban environment. Through a series of cinematic portraits, the project leans into the inherent tension between refined tailoring and weathered city backdrops, ranging from minimalist rooftop tiles to industrial fire escapes. David Koch serves as the central figure, bringing a grounded, neutral presence to a wardrobe curated by fashion editor Arnold Milfort. The styling emphasizes texture and form, pairing sharp leather trench coats and double-breasted blazers with softer, layered knits that suggest an effortless approach to modern masculinity. The team, including hair stylist Tomo Jidai and makeup artist Yuko Kawashima, maintains a clean, elevated aesthetic that feels both documentary-led and high-fashion. Utilizing natural light as the primary narrative device, the photography achieves a sense of depth, particularly in the exterior shots that emphasize architectural geometry. Several frames employ 35mm film, which introduces a subtle, authentic grain that enhances the tactile quality of the fabrics against the stark, weathered surroundings. By focusing on these deliberate, clean compositions, the editorial successfully positions the subject as a deliberate observer within his environment, resulting in a cohesive visual study that feels both timely and timeless in its execution.
