PIGALLES BY NIGHT
FASHION PHOTOGRAPHER NIL HOPE
STYLIST EDEM DOSSOU
In the shadowed alleys of Pigalle, Paris, dancer Chanel de Leon Gomez comes to life through the lens of French fashion photographer Nil Hope. Featured in L’Officiel Indonesia, this editorial captures the contrast between a dancer’s dreams and her everyday reality, showing the city’s vibrant nightlife alongside moments of quiet reflection.
Styled by Edem Dossou, the looks feature Acne, Valentino, Margiela, Marc Jacobs, Kenzo, and Dior, creating a visual story where fashion complements the rhythm of her life. From neon-lit streets to the solitary metro rides, each photograph highlights the textures, elegance, and movement of the garments while reflecting the dancer’s personal journey.
Nil Hope’s imagery transforms Pigalle into both a stage and a character. The editorial is more than fashion photography; it is a narrative of Parisian style, dance culture, and the intimate, unseen moments that define life in the City of Lights.
