Sambhar Lake, JaipurInto The Wild ~ Elopement Editorial
June 2018
With wild echoes of Burning Man, Bridelan’s editorial shoot from June, 2018 is a classic case of creative chaos. On the styling front, it was surreal. A certain kind of unexplored magic. Too much is happening but every detail, every ring on the finger, every prop and every expression and visage has a meaning and purpose. It’s meant to be. Our protagonist is a groom with soft charm and edgy cool. The one who is irresistibly attractive and playfully seductive and yet, there’s something gentlemanly about, well, this gentleman. He can’t live without music and spirituality and breaks into a jig at the slightest provocation. Whimsical, visually arresting, obsessively post-modern, culturally diverse, imaginative and illusionary, Bridelan’s new editorial is – to borrow Gucci’s creative director Alessandro Michele’s thoughts – “dreaming with the brain.”
