U Repubblica: Would You Mind?

Apr 2025

Would You Mind? is a fashion editorial series for U Repubblica that explores contemporary menswear through a blend of high-contrast studio portraiture and candid street-style photography. The project features a minimalist visual language, alternating between crisp, clean studio settings and atmospheric European urban landscapes. Photographed by Jody Rogac, the series employs editorial techniques such as monochrome film, long exposure, and soft natural light to highlight the sculptural silhouettes and textures of the apparel. Creative direction by Ben Kelway and fashion direction by Giovanni Dario Laudicina anchor the project, while styling by Makram Bitar coordinates the layered, avant-garde pieces, including structured blazers, leather gloves, and buckled boots. Hair styling by Claudio Belizario and casting by Piergiorgio Del Moro round out the production, which was overseen by Editor-in-Chief Emanuele Farneti.
