Palomo Spain

May 2026

The Vampire Lestat x Palomo Spain collaboration marks a provocative intersection of gothic romance and high-fashion editorialism. Captured by photographer Jeremie Monnier, the campaign channels a dark, cinematic energy that feels plucked directly from a stylized period drama. Under the visionary eye of designer Alejandro Gómez Palomo, the collection leans into a palette of deep reds, charcoal blacks, and stark whites, using intricate lace, ostrich feathers, and delicate embroidery to create a tactile, luxurious narrative. Fashion editor and stylist Alba Melendo elevates these pieces through precise layering, juxtaposing sheer fabrics with robust denim to emphasize the collection's fluid, gender-bending aesthetic. Featuring models Antoine Waldner, Helena Fournier, and Hugo Dacquet, the visuals utilize a mix of low-key chiaroscuro lighting and soft, natural light to heighten the drama of every pose. By integrating live-action techniques into these tight, intimate compositions, the imagery transcends traditional lookbook formats, offering instead a series of portraits that feel profoundly raw yet polished. The project masterfully balances the theatricality of its source material with the clean, minimalist lines of contemporary luxury fashion. It is an exploration of desire and identity, where every shadow and ruffle serves the broader, narrative-driven objective, resulting in a cohesive visual statement that celebrates the unapologetic intensity of the Palomo Spain design language.
