Walter Van Beirendonck: Walter Van Beirendonck FW25 Backstage

Jan 2025

Captured backstage during the Walter Van Beirendonck FW25 presentation, this series of portraits documents the season's bold tailoring and avant-garde accessories. The images lean into an editorial aesthetic, utilising a clean, minimal white backdrop to isolate the intricate layering of textures and oversized silhouettes. The collection features prominent use of sculptural finger extensions, dense fringe veils, and graphic appliqués. Photographer Nick Soland utilizes natural light to emphasise the contrast between the surreal props and traditional menswear garments. With hair styling by Charlie Le Mindu and makeup by Jenneke Croubels, the documentation focuses on the intersection of structured design and expressive styling.
