Net-A-Porter
The Icons





May 2026
In The Icons, Net-A-Porter leans into the power of reductionist luxury, delivering a campaign that prioritizes silhouette and textile over artifice. By stripping away extraneous environmental details, the project relies entirely on the interplay between high-end garment construction and the deliberate, poised movement of model Elise Crombez. The visual language is defined by editorial minimalism, where the neutral grey studio backdrop serves as a canvas for a series of monochromatic and textural studies. Photographer Marco van Rijt masterfully utilizes studio strobe lighting to emphasize the graphic quality of the clothing, from the voluminous cocoon-like drapes of an off-the-shoulder gown to the sharp, structured lines of a sleeveless coat. Fashion editor and stylist Elizabeth Fraser-Bell orchestrates a narrative of quiet confidence, weaving together complex floral layering and sheer mesh detailing with a restrained, sophisticated lens. The aesthetic cohesion is further cemented by the clean, sleek grooming from hair stylist Naoki Komiya and the subtle, polished makeup applications by Victoria Martin. This collection of portraiture and lifestyle imagery captures a contemporary spirit of fashion, emphasizing the weight, drape, and structural integrity of the season’s most essential pieces. By centering the human form through a disciplined, high-fashion filter, the campaign elevates the everyday editorial format into a timeless showcase of sartorial precision and deliberate, elevated style.
