Manifesto Magazine

Apr 2025

Manifesto Magazine’s April 2025 issue presents a curated collection of editorial covers that lean into the intersection of high-fashion tailoring and distinct architectural settings. Photographed by Keiichiro Nakajima and Mathieu Rainaud, the imagery spans a broad visual spectrum, transitioning from clean studio portraiture with minimalist backgrounds to evocative outdoor captures defined by analogue film grain and warm natural light. The aesthetic emphasizes texture and structure, showcasing layered fabrics and intricate silhouettes. Fashion direction and styling by Jonathan Yee, Sarah Lam, and Shino Itoi highlight a range of avant-garde and classic tailoring, featuring models Kayako Higuchi, Kiko Arai, Konrad Bauer, and Viktoria Wirs. The project utilizes varied techniques, including monochrome palettes and polished editorial layouts, to frame each ensemble against both modernist structures and raw, textured environments.
