Vogue Czechoslovakia: Celest

Nov 2025

Vogue Czechoslovakia presents Celest, a high-contrast editorial series that explores the intersection of high fashion and athletic motifs. Photographer Claire Rothstein documents model Celeste Fitzpatrick in a series of close-up portraits that juxtapose polished cosmetic artistry with heavy gym equipment and sculptural props. Fashion editor and stylist Oliver Volquardsen curates a visual narrative defined by dramatic, multi-toned makeup, bleached brows, and high-gloss textures. The project utilizes a low-key aesthetic, employing sharp lighting to isolate the subject against dark studio backdrops. The work leans into macro and cinematic techniques to emphasise tactile details, from the felt of a tennis ball to the fluid dynamics of water against skin.
