Numéro Switzerland
Pouvoir l'Essentiel
Mar 2026
Pouvoir l'Essentiel for Numéro Switzerland is a masterclass in fashion editorial storytelling, masterfully bridging the gap between brutalist architecture and avant-garde luxury. Through the lens of photographer Ryan Tandya, the project leans into a cinematic, moody aesthetic that highlights the juxtaposition of organic human forms against the sterile, industrial backdrops of elevators, subterranean garages, and concrete corridors. The visual narrative, curated with precision by fashion editor and stylist Mirko De Propris, features model Anyiel Majok as the central figure, whose commanding presence anchors each frame. The styling choices are deeply evocative, blending 1960s-inspired voluminous bouffants with modern, structured silhouettes, heavy embellishments, and ethereal feather detailing. Sharbel Hasbany complements this vision with sharp, sophisticated makeup artistry that accentuates the series' recurring low-key and chiaroscuro techniques. By utilizing cool-toned color grading and dramatic natural light, the campaign successfully elevates everyday urban environments into high-fashion stage sets. Each portrait functions as a study in texture—from shimmering sequins and plush furs to weathered stone and cold, ribbed metal—resulting in a cohesive, atmospheric exploration of modern luxury. This editorial series effectively captures a sense of poise and introspection, proving that through expert composition and careful styling, the tension between the architectural and the personal can create truly arresting, timeless imagery.
