M Le magazine du Monde: Lorde Et Desordres

Aug 2025

Lorde Et Desordres is an expansive editorial feature for M Le magazine du Monde, fronted by musician Lorde. Captured and creative directed by Jean-Baptiste Talbourdet-Napoleone, the project spans a series of studio portraits that lean into a polished, minimalist aesthetic. The imagery prioritizes strong tonal contrasts and tactile elements, utilizing monochrome palettes and clean studio lighting to highlight tailored silhouettes and textured layering. Fashion editor Virginie Benarroch centers the styling on structured leather, sharp tailoring, and vivid accent pieces, while hair by Matt Benns, makeup by Maud Laceppe, and manicures by Cam Tran maintain a precise, refined look. The series often employs low-key chiaroscuro techniques and analogue film textures, resulting in a cohesive visual narrative that balances high-contrast portraiture with subtle, motion-inspired frames.
