Shooting with renowned photographer Ralph Mecke for Fucking Young magazine was an ideal opportunity for Kathleen to combine her clean, minimalist style and deep understanding of art and fashion. The photo spread pays homage to visionary fashion designer Helmut Lang, known for his minimalist aesthetic and use of unconventional materials. His often asymmetrical cuts and unexpected details challenged traditional notions of beauty and elegance. Helmut Lang was a true visionary and a trailblazer in the fashion world, and his contribution to the industry will never be forgotten. His legacy will continue to inspire future generations of designers to push the boundaries of fashion and create truly innovative and groundbreaking designs.
It was particularly important to actress Luise Befort to convey a message at the BUNTE shoot. This is not an issue for our stylist Julius Forgo.It was photographed by Wolfgang Wilde and everything the environmentally conscious actress wore at the photo shoot was second-hand or produced by sustainable brands. In the interview with BUNTE editor Marlen Bruckner, you can find Luise's motivations, her influences and what she also pays attention to in productions like these.
No wonder she was awarded the New Faces Award Style in the category Young Style Icon in 2019. Currently you can watch Luise Befort in the series "Der Palast" in the ZDF-Mediathek.
