Manifesto Magazine: Julien Saunier

May 2025

Manifesto Magazine presents an editorial fashion series featuring model Julien Saunier, captured through the lens of photographer Brent Chua. The project focuses on layered silhouettes and raw industrial textures, utilizing a combination of natural light and soft, diffused illumination to define the form and fabric details. The visual narrative plays with high-contrast monochrome and clean, muted palettes to maintain a minimalist aesthetic. Styling by Jungle Lin explores oversized proportions, structured tailoring, and casual menswear elements, while makeup by Rio Kinoshita provides subtle finishing touches. The series, which incorporates techniques such as analogue film and dramatic chiaroscuro, documents a range of contemplative moods across various indoor loft environments.
