Laura Knipsael's editorial for Glamour NL reinterprets the city as a backdrop for fashion shoots, combining accessories with often overlooked architecture. Fascinated by buildings considered too ordinary, too rough, or too imperfect, she uses these "casual" structures as a stage to explore contrasts and identity.
Clean lines, faded textures, and unexpected colors become part of the visual language. By embedding fashion in these raw urban environments, the images reveal a tension between elegance and ruggedness—transforming concrete, steel, and shadows into perfect sets.
The work celebrates the beauty of imperfection and shows that the most captivating backdrops are often those we pass by without noticing. Here, the city becomes both character and canvas, transforming fashion into something grounded, unexpected, and powerfully real.
