Marie Claire Australia: Rose

Dec 2025

Rose is a multi-faceted editorial feature for Marie Claire Australia, highlighting actor Rose Byrne. Photographed by David Roemer, the series moves between high-contrast monochrome studio portraits and polished, minimalist imagery. The visual narrative leverages directional soft light to emphasize textural contrasts, ranging from intricate lace and feathered coats to structured, buttoned-down tailoring and modern PVC layers. Fashion editor Naomi Smith curates an aesthetic that balances formal, floor-length gowns with contemporary elements like athletic sneakers and oversized silhouettes. The portraiture is characterised by a spontaneous, dynamic energy, with Byrne captured mid-motion or in expressive, candid close-ups. This project relies on a clean, intentional composition that keeps the focus on the intersection of modern fashion and individual performance.
