M Le magazine du Monde

Jun 2026

In the striking series Médailles miraculeuses for M Le magazine du Monde, photographer Félix Dol-Maillot crafts an intimate exploration of personal adornment within the jewellery and fashion industry. This editorial portrait project strips away unnecessary artifice, favoring a raw, authentic connection between the viewer and the subject. By centering on the delicate interplay between circular gold medallions and the natural features of model Anna Papini, the imagery captures a sense of quiet reverence. The aesthetic leans into a minimalist editorial style, utilizing natural light to accentuate the textures of skin, hair, and the metallic sheen of the jewelry against simple, neutral backdrops. Fashion editor Laetitia Leporcq curates a look defined by tactile contrast, pairing intricate gold chains with casual textures like structured denim and simple ribbed tank tops. These choices, complemented by the soft lilac and pink eyeshadow palettes applied by makeup artist Tiziana Raimondo, ground the high-fashion concept in an accessible, human reality. By utilizing tight, macro framing and evocative, close-up portrait techniques, the series elevates these decorative pieces into symbols of personal history rather than mere accessories. Every image functions as a masterclass in subtlety, proving that when the focus is narrowed to the essential details of human expression and material, the resulting visual narrative becomes infinitely more powerful, timeless, and deeply resonant for a contemporary fashion audience.
