About

Captured by photographer Vincent Fandos, this documentary-style series chronicles the backstage atmosphere at the Dries Van Noten Fall/Winter 25 presentation. The collection of imagery highlights the final preparations of models including Karyna Maziar, Linna Shi, and Wei Yiting, focusing on the tactile craftsmanship of the garments and accessories. Utilizing a mix of chiaroscuro lighting and monochrome film techniques, the series emphasizes the intricate textures of beaded headpieces, layered textiles, and sculptural tailoring. The project documents the collaborative styling efforts of hair stylist Olivier Schawalder and makeup artist Inge Grognard, set against a backdrop of deep red theatrical drapery and raw studio environments.
