A KALTBLUT exclusive by Jérémy Cardoso and Merveille Malaki. Two creatives based in Paris. Jeremy works as a fashion photographer and Merveille as a stylist and art director. Together, they worked on the artistic direction of « ZEITGEIST[9.0] ». Models are Flora Grosy & Terence Martino.
“In this editorial, Merveille and I decided to take a Goth and punk culture oriented direction, as we tried to capture a certain avant-garde and aesthetic specific to the 90s. We also played with the concept of duality by using monochromatic images and adding a touch of colours to them. The term ZEITGEIST[9.0] was a way of identifying and reflecting the spirit of that time. Through the styling and choice of models, we intended to provide a new take on « alternative » fashion who’s often portrayed in a non-diverse way but also wanted to stress the fact that blackness comes in many forms and that black people who dress « alternative » are a thing.”
