Vogue Philippines

Feb 2026

Eden is a fashion editorial feature for Vogue Philippines that explores the intersection of high-fashion and natural landscape. Captured by photographer Anthony Arquier under the creative direction and styling of Alexandre Dornellas, the series places model Xiaorui Li within moody, atmospheric environments ranging from reflective lakeside settings to dense, forested pavilions. The project leans into a cinematic aesthetic, utilizing dramatic natural light and sculptural floral props to create a surreal, botanical-focused narrative. Through a mix of monochrome and desaturated palettes, the imagery emphasizes texture—from fringed mini dresses and intricate eyelet cut-outs to avant-garde tweed accessories. The editorial was produced by Kaio Berguer, with casting by Melissa Scott and overseen by editor-in-chief Bea Valdes, with hair design by Sundia Wen and makeup by Sharbel Hasbany.
