Whether we are aiming for a classic tailored look or a gender-fluid silhouette, I manage the full process from mood board creation to sourcing from vintage archives and high-street brands. I handle the logistics, transport, and on-set garment pinning, so the photographer and model can focus purely on the visual narrative. My approach to modern menswear is rooted in story. It is not just about the clothes, but how they interact with light, shadow, and the model's posture. ### My Styling Process - **Conceptualization:** We start with the mood board. Whether it is a minimalist black and white series or a complex avant-garde campaign for a brand like DLF, I define the visual direction first. - **Sourcing:** I curate garments from a mix of high-street brands, vintage stores, and emerging designers. For premium projects, I leverage my access to established designer archives to source unique pieces. - **On-Set Execution:** Styling is a team effort. I come with an assistant to handle the practicalities—steaming, garment organization, and on-set pinning. This ensures that dynamic shots, like tossing fabric or movement-heavy poses, are executed perfectly without delaying the shoot. ### Serving Diverse Needs - **Editorial Spreads:** I collaborate with magazines to create fashion stories that push boundaries, focusing on structural contrasts and textural details. - **Commercial Campaigns:** For ad campaigns, the goal is to create aspirational lifestyle imagery that feels grounded and real, ensuring the wardrobe aligns with the brand’s identity. - **Gender-Fluid Fashion:** I am passionate about blurring traditional lines, often mixing classic menswear elements with experimental shapes and colors to capture a modern, inclusive aesthetic. I travel across India for projects and am available to discuss your specific requirements. If you have a concept in mind, let's connect to bring it to life. ## About Varunesh Pal Fashion styling is more than just clothes; it is about building a mood.
