The return of the statement flat-lay
Photographed for AreYouFashion

The flat-lay is back, and it has learned restraint. Six things, chosen well, arranged on a warm surface: a structured bag, a silk scarf, sunglasses, a good heel. The edit is the point.

It is a useful exercise even off-camera — lay tomorrow’s accessories out tonight and you will see, instantly, what is doing the work and what is just noise.
