Ludovic de Saint Sernin: The BDSM Ballet Collection - Lookbook SS25

Sep 2024

Ludovic de Saint Sernin’s SS25 collection, The BDSM Ballet, presents a stark exploration of movement and material contrast. Captured through the lens of photographer Adam Peter Johnson, the lookbook oscillates between high-contrast, low-key chiaroscuro portraits on black backgrounds and minimalist, clean-lit compositions against white seamless sets. The imagery leans into a rhythmic interplay of sheer fabrics, metallic hardware, and structured leather, defining the collection’s core aesthetic. Creative direction by Jean-Baptiste Talbourdet-Napoleone and Lolita Jacobs provides a consistent visual framework that balances grit with refinement. Fashion styling by Carlos Nazario emphasizes intricate silhouettes through studded grommets, delicate lace-up detailing, and fluid drapes. With hair styling by Jawara and makeup by Thierry Do Nascimento, the campaign maintains a sharp editorial focus on texture and form.
