Vogue Portugal’s 'Idade do Gelo' editorial presents a striking visual dialogue between haute couture and the raw, unyielding elements of the natural world. Captured by photographer Luca Meneghel, the series employs a consistent diptych composition to bridge the gap between contemplative studio portraiture and dramatic, cold-toned landscapes of glaciers, stone, and snow.
Technically driven by a desaturated palette and high-contrast textures, the work uses experimental capture techniques including long exposure and macro photography to emphasize the tactile qualities of both fabric and geology. The styling, curated by fashion editor Francesco Casarotto, leans into avant-garde silhouettes and heavy, winter-ready textiles, while hair styling by Ezio Diaferia and makeup by Luciano Chiarello maintain a clean, sculptural aesthetic that mirrors the elemental surroundings.
