In the December 2023 issue of ELLE Germany, captured by Andreas Ortner, the Austrian Alps become a canvas for showcasing winter fashion, blending functionality and luxury. This edition, featuring Berit Heitmann, brings the essence of winter style to life.
The black and white imagery adds a timeless elegance, emphasizing the textures and silhouettes of the après-ski ensembles. Stylist Astrid Doll curates a collection that speaks to both the ruggedness and the refinement of mountain life.
Puffer jackets, a staple for winter warmth, are reimagined as statement pieces. Luxurious knitwear, another highlight, offers a glimpse into the blend of comfort and style essential for winter wardrobes. Ski goggles, often seen as purely functional, are transformed into fashion accessories, contributing to the overall allure of the outfits.
The natural beauty of the mountains provides a striking contrast to these cozy, chic looks. Hair and makeup by Uli Wissel play into this narrative with a mussed updo and understated makeup, aligning with the effortless elegance of winter fashion. MILKCITYSTUDIO also works on production for the shoot.
