About

Second Nature is an editorial fashion project for Dapper Dan Magazine, captured by photographer Vassilis Karidis. The series leans into a stark, minimalist aesthetic, juxtaposing avant-garde tailoring and heavy textural fabrics against arid, rugged, and rocky outdoor landscapes. The imagery alternates between high-contrast monochrome and warm, earthy tones, utilizing natural light to accentuate the grit of the terrain and the intricate forms of the garments. With styling and editing by Robert Rabensteiner, the project emphasizes sculptural silhouettes, often featuring voluminous headwear and layered apparel worn by model Vasko Luyckx. Additional credits include hair styling by Enez Manav and casting by Alexandra Sandberg.
