Aug 2025

Vogue Australia’s August 2025 cover story presents a sophisticated editorial series captured by photographer Darren McDonald. Under the creative direction of Editor-in-Chief Christine Centenera, the project channels a minimalist aesthetic, utilizing soft directional lighting and clean studio backdrops to emphasize form and silhouette. The series features model Em Stenberg and an ensemble cast, with styling led by fashion editor Kaila Matthews. The wardrobe highlights heavy textures and structured tailoring, incorporating leather bombers, sculpted wide-leg trousers, and intricate crochet work. The visual execution leans into both high-contrast monochrome, featuring dramatic chiaroscuro, and a warmer, earthy palette that underscores the project's refined, editorial tone.
