About

Wallpaper Magazine presents 'Play,' a fashion editorial series that explores movement and minimalist form through a sequence of high-contrast studio portraits. Photographer Alexa Sonsino centers the project on structural silhouettes and textured textiles, utilizing a mix of soft studio light and moody chiaroscuro techniques to define each composition. The series features model Evgenia Nirka, with fashion styling by Lune Kuipers. The editorial leans into a clean, minimalist aesthetic, punctuated by deliberate moments of motion blur and low-key lighting. Hair styling by Yumiko Hikage and makeup by Kamila Vay anchor the visual narrative across various studio settings.
