Braien Vaiksaar is angelic as he graces the cover of HERO. Connecting with the British fashion magazine for the season, Braien dons winged ears for a stunning black and white story. Szilveszter Makó hits the studio to photograph Braien for the outing. Turning up the contrast and flattening the overall images, Makó captures portraits with a vintage allure. Meanwhile, Beat Bolliger oversees the styling for the cover story. Bolliger goes for a touch of the avant-garde, picking bold pieces brought together in a dark color palette. Moving under the guise of “Our God of Sorrows,” Braien stuns in fashions from the likes of J.W. Anderson, Balenciaga, Loewe, and more.
