Vogue Philippines
The Shape Of Water
Dec 2025
The Shape Of Water is a comprehensive fashion editorial produced for Vogue Philippines under the direction of Editor-in-Chief Bea Valdes. The story unfolds as a visual exploration of texture and landscape, placing model Suganya within a series of serene, outdoor, and atmospheric environments that range from lush forest riverbanks to weathered coastal wooden docks. Photographer Karl King Aguña captures these moments using soft natural light, frequently employing an analogue film aesthetic that leans into the project's earthy, tactile quality. Fashion editor and stylist Pam Quinones curates a collection of garments that integrate sculptural silhouettes, intricate beadwork, and vibrant woven textiles, creating a visual dialogue between contemporary fashion and traditional, raw elements. Throughout the series, the imagery shifts between vertical portraits and horizontal layouts, utilizing a mix of saturated color palettes and high-contrast monochrome tones. The work emphasizes organic storytelling, favoring atmospheric settings that highlight both the architectural forms of the clothing and the natural surroundings.
