Walter Van Beirendonck: Walter Van Beirendonck SS25 Backstage

Jun 2024

Captured backstage during the Walter Van Beirendonck SS25 presentation, this series of editorial images documents the avant-garde aesthetic of the spring/summer collection. The photography by Nick Soland leans into a clean, documentary style, highlighting the intricate textures of structured outerwear, patterned garments, and whimsical accessories against atmospheric architectural backgrounds. The imagery emphasises the designer's theatrical vision, featuring hair styling by Charlie Le Mindu and bold, graphic makeup by Jenneke Croubels. Utilizing natural light and an occasional grainy analogue film finish, the collection focuses on the interplay between heavy textures and playful, bold embellishments worn by model Makhan Sakho.
