Air & Form. The Lightness of Fashion is a fashion editorial photographed by Artur Hudenko with model Athina Dolapsaki of Anthology, wearing designs by Helena Silina, published in the printed edition MALVIE Fashion Across Cultures 133, October 2026, where it is the cover story. In the team's words: "This project explores the balance between stability and lightness in contemporary fashion. Through structured forms and the delicate movement of ostrich feathers, the collection creates a dialogue between strength and freedom. It is an exploration of fashion as something confident yet fluid — where form can remain strong while leaving space for air, movement, and self-expression."

About Lightness of Fashion

Air & Form is shot against a soft grey studio wall at Alzaia 192. Athina Dolapsaki wears Helena Silina in black and deep teal: a sheer black dress with ostrich-feather cuffs and a feathered hem, a long teal silk scarf caught in the air, a black leather jacket with wide trousers and a pillbox hat, and full organza sleeves that rise like smoke.

Artur Hudenko plays strong shapes against movement. The model crouches, sits on a bar stool, lies on the floor and lifts her arms into the light, while the feathers and the floating scarf soften every pose. Close-ups of her face, glowing skin and a deep berry lip, keep the story intimate. Videographer Anna, makeup and hair artist Chiara Tolipano and assistant Anna Korshunova complete the team.
