HARDSTYLE was behind Lady Gaga\u2019s lauded \u201cDisease<\/a>\u201d and \u201cAbracadabra<\/a>\u201d music videos, as well as her Coachella performance. They also collaborate regularly with Travis Scott<\/a>, having styled his Utopia zine and tour, as well as various editorial projects \u2013 including the Travis Scott and Valerio Olgiati cover story<\/a> for 032c\u2019s Winter 24\/25 Issue<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Last year, Rosenzweig and Royal set out to create something that would showcase the breadth and purity of their editorial vision \u2013 with no artists, advertisers, or publishers to please. The result is a book called HARDSTYLE<\/a>: a 200-page visual manifesto with a hard metal cover.<\/p>\n

Originally conceived as a seasonal zine responding to the current fashion cycle (F\/W 24-25), the project evolved and grew over time. The book was shot by photographer Arcin Sagdic<\/a> over a six day period in London, and also includes alt-beauty icon Isamaya Ffrench<\/a> in the list of credits as a makeup artist. \u201cBoth of us go too hard,” Rosenzweig said. \u201cIt turned into something much larger in scope.” <\/p>\n
