Customellow

Michiel Spijkers campaign photography for Customellow, featuring a male performer in mid-motion against industrial architecture.

Customellow fashion campaign photography takes on a raw, cinematic edge in this collaboration with designer Vincent de Boer.

Shot at the former military airbase in Soesterberg, the campaign moves between industrial architecture, woodland textures and open concrete space. Two male performers present the collection through restrained choreography and cryptic interaction rather than conventional fashion poses.

About the project

Customellow fashion campaign photography takes on a raw, cinematic edge in this collaboration with calligrapher and designer Vincent de Boer. Given complete creative freedom by the Korean fashion label, Vincent and Michiel Spijkers developed the concept together and built the entire production under one creative direction.

Shot at the former military airbase in Soesterberg, the campaign moves between industrial architecture, woodland textures and open concrete space. Two male performers present the collection through restrained choreography and cryptic interaction rather than conventional fashion poses.
