Numero Netherlands Dream Upon Walking 2025

About

Dream Upon Walking is a fashion editorial feature for Numero Netherlands, curated by editor-in-chief Timotej Letonja. The project explores sculptural silhouettes and high-contrast aesthetics through a series of studio-based portraits, leaning into moody, chiaroscuro lighting and desaturated palettes to emphasize form and texture. Photographer Niklas Haze drives the visual narrative, capturing model Chudier Billy across varied styling shifts. Fashion editor and stylist Peninah Amanda utilizes bold color blocking and architectural layering, while makeup artist Naomi Gugler complements the editorial direction with vivid, graphic applications. The collection employs diverse techniques, including analogue film aesthetics and clean, natural light compositions, to document contemporary sartorial shapes.
