Purple Magazine: Eckhaus Latta FW24, Backstage NYFW

Feb 2024

Photographed by Darío Castillo for Purple Magazine, this editorial series captures the frenetic, raw energy of the Eckhaus Latta FW24 presentation at New York Fashion Week. The collection of images moves beyond the polished runway to document the intimate, unvarnished preparation space. Through an analogue lens, the work channels a documentary-style aesthetic characterized by deliberate grain and high-contrast lighting. Castillo emphasizes the utilitarian industrial setting of the backstage environment, utilizing natural light from expansive grid windows alongside direct flash to maintain an authentic, snapshot-like atmosphere. The project offers a behind-the-scenes perspective on the styling process, showcasing the collection's textured knits, layered sheer garments, and avant-garde silhouettes within a gritty, candid narrative.
