In RE-BEL ISSUE 5, Rafael Stahelin captures some acrobatic, black and white snaps of various models posing sprawled out and bent over different chairs. Shot in a white-walled studio, the high-contrast prints not only highlight some pretty hip monochromatic fashion pieces, but also show off the diverse talents and flexibility of the models depicted in them.
A mix of sheer and avant-garde casual wear with modern sportswear can be seen presented in dynamic poses in this series, which plays off the clothing's own structured tailoring and directional lines. So if you're looking for pieces that will give you a bit more of an architectural style, but are unable to do the yoga poses depicted here, this photography from Rafael Stahelin will provide some major style inspiration.
