About

L'Essenziale is a fashion editorial series produced for iO Donna, defined by a minimalist studio aesthetic that prioritizes texture and sculptural silhouettes. The imagery features a controlled interplay between natural light and high-contrast monochrome tones, focusing on the tactile quality of garments ranging from heavy leathers and knits to delicate lace and fringe. Photographer Federico Sorrentino works with fashion editor and stylist Flavia Galantini to create a series of composed, architectural poses. Featuring model Dee Zowislo, the project leans into clean framing and purposeful stillness, with makeup artistry by Giovanna Fucciolo providing a polished finish that emphasizes the collection's varied materials and bold, primary color accents.
