Curtain

By PAP Magazine Editorial

A pleated white ruff encircles the neck like a sculptural collar, rising against the folds of a deep navy curtain that hangs like a theatre backdrop. Hair is swept upward into a voluminous silhouette that echoes seventeenth-century portraiture, while a gold baroque heart earring catches the light along the jawline. In another frame, a figure stands before cream-toned walls holding binoculars to her face, dressed in a white wrap coat cinched at the waist with a belt that recalls mid-century tailoring codes. The overall palette of navy, cream, and stark white creates a stage-like atmosphere—part old palazzo, part dressing room—where garments occupy space with architectural presence. Credits include Lucia Nuzzi, Emanuele D'angelo, Brando Morbioli, Martina Meneghetti, Nayché Tomasi, and Letizia Federici, anchoring the editorial in a vision that moves between theatrical stillness and exaggerated form.
