Les Hommes Publics

Jun 2025

Saudade and Spurs is a fashion editorial series produced for Les Hommes Publics, captured by photographer Max von Treu. Starring model Virgile Elana, the project leans into a western-inspired aesthetic, blending contemporary tailoring with rustic equestrian elements. The imagery is defined by a consistent use of natural light and an earthy color palette, creating a cohesive visual narrative across various outdoor and architectural settings. Utilizing a combination of editorial and documentary styles, the series explores textures through macro photography and deliberate composition. The work incorporates analogue film techniques to highlight the juxtaposition between sharp, structured garments and the organic environment, maintaining a clean yet raw finish throughout the spread.
