In a world where NFT's, virtual showrooms and digital runway models are taking the fashion world by storm, fashion photography is catching up and creating a space where online and IRL can exist in one playful and exciting realm. Fashion editorial ‘VENUS ’ explores the ever-changing world of fashion photography through the mind of Art Director Bethan Cooke, combining the magnetism of nature with the elegance of couture fashion through a futuristic lens.
‘VENUS’ encapsulates the magnetism, mystery and myth surrounding the carnivorous plant through SX makeup, avant-garde designs by Mariusz Malon and digital elements by 3D Artist Carla Batley. There's so much more to learn about our own surroundings and planet, and similarly fashion has so much more to learn and give before we can fully shift to a digital space. While there's still time before emerging creatives are forced to learn how to navigate their talents in a completely digital space, exploring their talents through fashion editorials whilst combining futuristic, digital elements may just be the way forward.
