W Magazine China

Oct 2025

Philo-sophy is a striking editorial series for W Magazine China, centering on the intersection of structured fashion and architectural minimalism. Photographer Zhong Lin captures model Thea Almqvist against a restrained, neutral studio backdrop, emphasizing the tactile qualities of high-end fabrics and modern, sculptural tailoring. Defined by a polished aesthetic, the project features wet-look hair styling by Laurent Philippon and clean, natural makeup by Min Kim. Austin Feng’s styling highlights oversized silhouettes and experimental textures, from glossy leather to heavyweight, brushed knits. The editorial leans into soft, diffused lighting to accentuate the interplay of clean lines and distinct material volumes.
