Baud Postma photographs Pre-Fall's fabulous fashion via Zoom
With remote working firmly in place in the UK, we have amped up our lockdown creativity. This week, we enlisted London-based photographer Baud Postma to shoot a selection of our favourite Pre-Fall monochromatic looks via a Zoom call with model Sofie Hemmet. Wallpaper* Fashion Director Jason Hughes was on hand via screen to style, placing particular focus on a flash of gold jewellery. From Loewe’s delicate headpieces to Burberry’s fringe-festooned outerwear, the result is a sophisticated selection of grayscale images, which Postma developed via his bathroom-turned-darkroom, which have in turn been redigitised. Other featured brands include Dior, Fendi, Bottega Veneta and Giorgio Armani. They'll not only inspire your Pre-Fall fashion choices, but they might just inform the accoutrements you select for your next Zoom call too.
