In the striking series Corporate Hand-Me-Downs for Study Magazine, photographer Marie Deteneuille orchestrates an evocative exploration of sartorial subversion. The project leans into editorial minimalism, dismantling the rigid boundaries of professional attire by juxtaposing structured tailoring—such as double-breasted blazers and formal pinstripes—with the relaxed, distressed nature of loungewear and athletic shorts. Under the sharp eye of fashion editor and stylist Rae Boxer, the collection creates a visual dialogue between corporate heritage and contemporary youth culture, effectively channeling a sense of polished, urban nonchalance. The execution benefits from a highly intentional approach to texture, where wool coats, leather trousers, and fringed knits interact with minimalist backdrops, while the inclusion of black-and-white analogue film captures a timeless, reportage-style authenticity. Set designer Victor Leverrier provides a curated environment that ranges from raw industrial textures to stark, clean surfaces, allowing the models to inhabit a space that feels both domestic and staged. With nuanced hair styling by Akemi Kishida and precise makeup by Christine Corbel, the project maintains a consistent narrative of effortless, unbothered cool. Through this deliberate blending of high and low fashion, Corporate Hand-Me-Downs functions as a sophisticated study in contradiction, utilizing high-key lighting and natural light to emphasize the tactile quality of the garments and the stoic, direct gaze of the talent.
