Lelo

"LELO" (2019) is the result of a visual research and collaboration between photographer Olivia Malena Vidal and fashion designer Tina Schwizgebel-Wang. Together, they developed a new way of showcasing the clothes, in which the model and the clothes are shown in an equal manner and therefore can merge.
