Vogue Netherlands
The Dolls Erra
Oct 2025
For the October 2023 issue of Vogue Netherlands, 'The Dolls Erra' presents a compelling fashion editorial that explores form, texture, and urban geometry. Captured by photographer Wikkie Hermkens, the series features models Aariana Rose Philip and Valentine alongside Richie Shazam in a collection of high-contrast, monochrome images. The visual language leans into a moody, cinematic aesthetic, alternating between the stark intimacy of low-key, chiaroscuro studio lighting and the expansive, grit-filled perspectives of urban rooftop settings. Styling by Sonny Groo emphasizes structural silhouettes through leather tailoring, metallic embellishments, and draped, fringed garments. The aesthetic is further defined by wet-look hair styling from Ryuta Sayama and refined makeup by Soo Park, which together maintain a consistent, gritty atmosphere across the feature. Using a blend of natural light and controlled studio setups, the project captures a distinct narrative style that emphasizes depth and architectural presence.
