About

Miles from here is a comprehensive fashion editorial for U Repubblica, showcasing a collection of layered contemporary menswear. The project transitions between stark, monochromatic studio portraits and dynamic outdoor sequences, utilizing architectural rooftop settings to emphasize structure and urban texture. Photographer Joseph Echenique leads the visual direction, employing both natural light and dramatic low-key lighting to highlight fabric details and silhouette. The editorial aesthetic leans into editorial, monochrome, and analogue film techniques to create a cohesive, sophisticated series. Stylist Matteo Maggini curates a diverse wardrobe, ranging from structured overcoats and puffer jackets to textured knits, accessorized with headwear and leather goods. The project features model Macoumba Lo alongside a wider cast, with casting directed by Piergiorgio Del Moro, hair by Yuri Napolitano, and makeup by Alice Fayre.
