WSJ: The New Sexy
Oct 2026
WSJ presents The New Sexy, a fashion editorial series that interrogates contemporary silhouettes through avant-garde styling and sharp studio compositions. Featuring model Alex Consani, the project explores high-contrast aesthetics and sculptural forms, ranging from tailored tuxedos to innovative garments crafted from metallic tags and ceramic elements. Photographer Malick Bodian captures the subject across various minimalist studio settings, employing both monochrome grading and clean, balanced lighting. The series relies on precise, expressive movement to emphasize the relationship between fashion, sculpture, and performance. Styling by Harry Lambert defines the visual narrative, which is further refined by hair styling from Laurent Philippon and makeup by Celine Martin. Casting was directed by Julia Lange and Tess Wilcox.
