The Collector and Polimoda have joined forces for this project involving Undergraduate in Fashion Styling and Undergraduate in Fashion Art Direction students to create editorial shoots based on four briefs.
The categories for the editorials were beauty and fashion. The editorial board of the magazine selected the four best mood boards by the students and supported the winners in creating the editorials, now published on The Collector.
Stains and Shadows
A beauty editorial that looks at the metaphorical possibility of going anywhere: Capri or Ibiza, the Lofoten Islands or Deauville. This editorial brief focused on evoking summer nostalgia, sunny places and making memories in a different time and place.
