A new daily style

This quick session with Catherine Reus was all about trying out a new mix of textures and finding a wearable take on latex for everyday styling. We kept the setting minimal, just the clean lines of a parking garage, and focused on how the outfit held up visually in contrast-heavy light. Catherine paired sleek black latex leggings with open-toe platform heels and a white skirt, striking a balance between bold materials and classic shapes. The result had just the right blend of polished and experimental.

She moved with ease in this look, and the outfit allowed for a range of expression, from elegant stances to sharper, more stylized poses. The matte fabric of the top helped neutralize the gloss from the legs, keeping everything grounded. I worked in monochrome for this set to strip the look down even further, emphasizing texture and silhouette without color's influence. The latex holds the light, giving subtle movement even in stillness.

This outfit marked a shift for her, not just a test look but something she genuinely enjoyed and could see as part of her personal wardrobe. For me, this was less about pushing a fashion concept and more about finding that balance between design and wearability. Catherine’s feedback was immediate: she felt good in it. That’s usually the best indicator that we’re heading in the right direction.
