This late summer editorial by Aarjan Hamel immediately caught my eye. The arty layout, the raw industrial setting, and the fearless mix of textures and patterns create a mood that feels both playful and powerful. Almost every piece styled here is vintage, adding authenticity and soul to the looks. What I love most is the personal touch in the styling — it’s bold, unexpected, and refreshingly unpolished.

To all adolescents out there: let this be a reminder. Fashion isn’t about following rules, it’s about breaking them. Be more creative in your styling, make it your own, let it speak about who you are. Because the best style is always the most personal.

On the left, a black-and-white portrait of a girl in a color-block windbreaker jacket, holding a strand of her hair across her eyes as if to cover them. On the right, the same girl poses indoors on a bicycle, wearing a pale pink lace dress over a long-sleeve top, spotted black-and-white boots, and holding a sheer fabric piece aloft like a flag, with large draped fabric as a backdrop.

A layered composition inside an industrial warehouse shows two children: in the foreground, a boy wears a plush headpiece shaped like sun rays, while behind him another boy in a bold black-and-white striped jacket looks back over his shoulder with an intense gaze. The background reveals the vast empty warehouse space with exposed beams and painted pillars. Fashion editorial photographed by Aarjan Hamel for Scimparello Magazine.

A fashion editorial diptych: on the left, a close-up shows a child sitting inside a shopping cart, dressed in a purple-blue checkered shirt, wide beige shorts, gray knee-high socks, and sneakers. On the right, a girl with long hair wears an oversized gray pinstripe blazer over a dark shirt, standing in a sunlit industrial space with a single orange chair in the background.

A conceptual diptych: the main image shows bright orange plastic containers hanging from wires against a backdrop of industrial windows and pipes. Overlaid in the foreground, a girl in a cream turtleneck and striking long red satin gloves ties her hair up, with the suspended containers visible in the background.
