Mastermind Magazine

Sep 2026

Mastermind Magazine's 'New Order' project presents a series of fashion editorials focused on sculptural textures and high-contrast color palettes. Photographer Julien Martinez Leclerc captures a range of subjects, including Mica Argañaraz and Waldemar Durup, against both stark studio backdrops and expansive natural landscapes. The visual execution leans into clean, directional lighting for its indoor portraiture, contrasted by moody, cinematic atmospheres captured under natural light for its outdoor sequences. Fashion editor Conor Manning leads the styling, incorporating intricate details such as beaded epaulettes, lace, and layered knitwear. The editorial features contributions from hair stylist Damien Boissinot and makeup artist Hiromi Ueda, with casting by Piergiorgio Del Moro. The project adopts an editorial style defined by deliberate framing and textural depth.
