"Metal Heart" | Fashion Story For Féroce Magazine

  • Maxime Ephritikhine

"Metal Heart" is a Fashion Story Published in the January 2021 Issue of Féroce Magazine. For this story I wanted to create a style that was reminiscent of both the Punk and Romantic aesthetic. We choose to play with strong and bold make-up looks, creating a modern take on the Punk aesthetic, but I decided to go with a more elevated wardrobe, featuring beautifully crafted design, made with luxurious fabrics. Reminiscent of the Haute-Couture heritage of Paris, where this shoot took place in October 2020. I designed and crafted most of the clothing in this Editorial, during the first Lockdown. They are part of EpithuxikHarmonie Paris label. The metallic chainmail items are all crafted by the very talented Jeanne Mehtas in Paris. Most of the bold jewelry featured belongs to the Parisian label Gavilane.
