Styling
At Maxime Black, styling is an essential part of our broader world-building approach. The goal is to create a fictional near-future universe where humans, robots, artificial intelligences, and extraterrestrials coexist — a setting that informs every visual and design decision we make.
In styling, we draw directly from the aesthetics of speculative fiction — pulling inspiration from comics, films, and other futuristic narratives. Each look is designed to feel like it belongs to a character living in that imagined world.
Beyond physical styling, I recently introduced the idea of using digital tools and artificial intelligence as a kind of digital wardrobe — adjusting colors, reshaping silhouettes, and adding new visual elements, pieces and accessories to finalize the looks.
This method not only extends the storytelling but also serves as a prototyping tool: allowing us to test garment modifications digitally before applying them in real life.
