Vogue España

May 2026

Vogue España captures an intimate, sun-drenched narrative in this latest editorial feature titled Nicole, which explores the intersection of high-end fashion and raw, unfiltered lifestyle aesthetics. Photographer David Gomez Maestre leans into the evocative power of analogue, utilizing 35mm film to ground the shoot in a tangible, nostalgic reality. By choosing Kodak Portra 800 film, the project emphasizes the tactile nature of the coastal setting, where actor Nicole Wallace is framed against the serene backdrop of the ocean. Fashion editor and stylist Helena Contreras curates a palette of pale turquoise and peach, allowing the tiered lace skirts and textured silhouettes to harmonize with the soft, natural light of the beach environment. This editorial feels less like a traditional commercial campaign and more like a stolen moment of tranquility, bolstered by the precise, understated hair styling of Jesus De Paula and the luminous, water-flecked makeup application from Manuela Pane. The inclusion of contact sheet frames and visible film borders serves as an intentional stylistic choice, inviting the viewer into the process rather than hiding it behind digital polish. Ultimately, the work reads as a sophisticated masterclass in editorial minimalism, proving that luxury fashion thrives when placed within a vulnerable, human context that feels both immediate and timeless.
