Stylist Michael Fusco adds a layer of nostalgic futurism to the mix, selecting pieces from Charles and Ron, Kaftan Studio, and complementing them with striking jewelry from Atra Nova and Melina Maria.

This curated wardrobe of textures and shapes creates a visual symphony, marrying volume with disco-inspired shine, adding a glossy finish to the images.
