#6 - BORSOI
#5 - ROBERT GIGLIOTTI
What’s on ROBERT GIGLIOTTI’s mind? For starters, vintage Dolce fantasies, the ever-tempting pull of impractical shoes, and emotional support chihuahuas. From Capri-length and ‘90s David Beckham obsessions to quitting his 9-to-5 without looking back, Robert proves that personal style IS a lifestyle choice. Expect big sunglasses energy, nostalgic high school playlists, and just enough chaos to keep things interesting.

My first thought this morning was…
Which coffee shop should I go to today? My favourite part of my morning routine.
I’m obsessed with…
Vintage Dolce & Gabbana, Capri-length shorts, and extra-large sunglasses.
My screen time…
I'm afraid to check… Probably a lot, but hey, it's my job… right???
I always listen to…
Miley Cyrus & Her Dead Petz is an album I listen to probably every day.

Home is…
Wherever my chihuahuas are.
You can often find me…
Scrolling through Grailed, eBay, The RealReal, Facebook marketplace and Depop.
I dream of going to…
Anywhere in Asia, I need to plan a trip asap.
I spend way too much money on…
Impractical shoes. I like fun and exciting colours, but are they wearable? Not really.
Left Full look Jacquemus
Right Full look Dolce&Gabbana
My favourite childhood memory is…
Playing with Bratz dolls with my best friend, Dana.
I love the smell of…
An old library on a fall day. I find colognes that smell like it now.
I will always laugh at…
Anything my mom posts on her Instagram story.
I want to learn how to…
Surf. I kind of know how to, but I’m not confident enough to go out on my own.

My current uniform consists of…
A huge bracelet stack, vintage jeans and big sunglasses.
A historical figure I’d like to meet with…
Spilling the tea over tea with Princess Diana sounds iconic.
Something that remains timeless for me…
A good playlist. I still listen to playlists I made in high school.
Dying my hair…
Has to stop. I recently had to cut it all off because of damage. I love my natural colour, but I love experimenting too, so it’s a daily inner battle I have with myself.

An artwork I would love to own is…
Does an original mid-century house on the beach count as artwork? Well, it does to me.
My most prized possession is…
My dogs and my family photos. Everything else is replaceable.
My ultimate style hero is…
‘90s David Beckham, obviously.
I don’t believe in…
Staying the same. If I have the same haircut for over three months, I spiral. I think life is about evolution, experimenting and taking risks.
The biggest risk I’ve ever taken was…
Quitting my 9-to-5 to pursue social media and modelling full-time. I have zero regrets.

#4 - TRISTAN RIDEL
From training in ballet studios to acting in the Prime series Étoile, Tristan Ridel is on the way to becoming a star in his own right. In a break from rehearsing, he sat down with us to chat about the empowerment and adrenaline that comes with being on stage and how ballet allows him to speak without words.
Profession: Dancer and Actor
Birthday and Astrological Sign: 18th of December; Sagittarius
Place of residence: Paris, France
First thought I had today:
“Did I sleep through my alarm again?”
Song I have on repeat:
I have to do a top 3 of my favourite artists because music is really important in my life, and it's too hard to choose one – James Blake, Mac DeMarco, and Chopin.
My first role:
Tristan Magan in Étoile. It was exhilarating. I originally did the audition for dancing after meeting Marguerite Derricks (the choreographer on the show and producer), she pushed me to audition also for the acting parts, and after a quick trip to New York, I met Amy and Dan Palladino, who wrote me a part in the show. It was my first experience on the big screen, and to this day, I will cherish those moments we had on set with my fellow dancers and everyone involved.
My first crush:
Ballet. I fell in love with the discipline, the control, and the expressiveness. It taught me how to speak without words.
My latest crush:
Acting. It’s a new way of exploring truth through emotion and with a voice. There’s something raw and infinite about it.
My acting idol:
Gaspard Ulliel. I’ve always admired his quiet intensity and emotional depth. He had this unique ability to convey so much with just a glance or a subtle gesture. One of my favourite films is Juste la fin du monde, and his performance in it deeply moved me. He portrayed such inner conflict and vulnerability with incredible restraint, and that taught me how powerful understated acting can be.
Place I feel most comfortable in:
On stage! There, I have the space and freedom to share my emotions with a feeling of empowerment mixed with adrenaline. But realistically speaking… at home, on my balcony, with my girlfriend and my cat.
My most recent deep dive:
I had the chance to dive into the Chubbuck Technique this year. It’s about fighting to change your world, not just expressing feelings. Always act with purpose. I’m focusing on using personal pain and emotional history to actively pursue a character’s goal. It’s reshaping how I prepare and how I connect.
Last film that made me laugh:
OSS 117 will always get me, French people will know what I am talking about (I hope), serving iconic lines by the unmatched Jean Dujardin, who makes the most unlikeable character into the most endearing person.
Last film that made me cry:
Everything Everywhere All at Once got me tearing up because beneath all the craziness, there’s something universal: family. It captures the messiness, love, regret, and quiet hope that many people experience but often can’t articulate.
My go-to outfit as of late consists of:
You’ll usually find me in black. I like basic tones, clean and simple. Most days it’s boots, jeans, and a leather jacket.
This summer, I want to:
Make the most of time with my family. Time is precious, and I want to be fully present, especially for my parents, but also for my nieces, whom I meet every summer.
Most days, you can find me:
In the ballet studio or training. Trying to be the best version I can be, whether through movement or performance.

#2 – BARAK SHAMIR
Greetings from New York, where model Barak Shamir talks to us about body language, no-phones holidays, and following in Channing Tatum’s footsteps.
Profession: Model
Birthday and Astrological Sign: 26.03.1999, Aries
Place of Residence: New York
I got really into learning about body language and micro-expressions — how much we say without actually speaking.
B.S
First thought I had today:
My family
Song I have on repeat:
Not Like Us by Kendrick Lamar
left Coat Aiste Hong
Right Pants Tom Ford
My first role:
It was a student film project. I was really nervous at first, but I slowly eased into it. The whole crew made me feel welcome and like I was truly part of something. By the end, I had a great time.
My first crush:
Adi Himelbloy
My latest crush:
Doechii
My acting idol:
Channing Tatum. He came from nothing, there was a time he was sleeping on benches. My agent, Jason, discovered him, helped launch his modeling career, and from there, he took off. Now, he’s one of the most honest and talented actors in the industry. What I admire the most is how he turned his life around and took over the world, big time.

Place I feel most comfortable in:

My most recent deep dive:
About a year ago, I got really into learning about body language and micro-expressions — how much we say without actually speaking. It totally changed how I see people, castings, and even how I carry myself on set.
Right Jacket Emporio Armani
Last film that made me laugh:
City Lights by Charlie Chaplin. It’s about a romance between Chaplin’s character and a blind flower seller who mistakes him for a wealthy man. The film is full of misunderstandings and sweet, hilarious moments that blur the lines between comedy and heartbreak.
Last film that made me cry:
Titanic — such a heartbreaking and tragic story.
Left Suit 5000
Right Top K.NGSLEY
My go-to outfit as of late consists of:
A mix of jeans in different colours, a white T-shirt, a black or green jacket, and white Air Force sneakers.
This summer, I want to:
Walk some powerful, creative shows during Fashion Week in Europe — especially ones that tell a story or take risks. After that, I’m dreaming of a proper break: somewhere warm, with close friends I haven’t seen in too long. Just good laughs, the beach, and no phones.
Jacket Emporio Armani
Most days, you can find me:
Running in the park or at a café near my place in Greenpoint, sipping coffee and working on my laptop.

#1 – MARKUS WIEDEMANN
Welcome to our new series THE FORM, in which we get to meet budding creatives from around the world. First up is Markus Wiedemann, an up-and-coming actor based in Munich, who tells us about his primal need of being outside, obsessing over words, and his Monica Bellucci crush.
Profession: Actor, Model
Birthday and Astrological Sign: 04.05.1997, Taurus
Place of residence: Munich, Germany
My first real role in drama school was the only female character in a very male-dominated play: Amalia in The Robbers by Friedrich Schiller.

My first role:
My first real role in drama school was the only female character in a very male-dominated play: Amalia in The Robbers by Friedrich Schiller. At first, I was a little salty about not being cast as one of the badass robbers, but I’m so glad that it went this way. I had to learn how to walk in heels, how not to sit down like a dude and got to choose and wear a really pretty dress. I learned so much, forever grateful to my wonderful director, Lea.

My first crush:
I know that I “married” this girl on the playground. I don’t remember her name, but the wedding was spectacular.

My latest crush:
Changes daily. Yesterday I watched the 2003 Cannes Press Conference of Irréversible and renewed my love for Monica Bellucci. I love her work and her calm demeanour. One of Italy's greatest treasures.
Shorts Vivienne Westwood, socks and sneakers Celine Homme
My acting idol:
I have to split this up. Penelope Cruz is my favourite actress, pure gold. I will never ever get bored of her performance in Volver – in fact, I think it’s my favourite female performance ever. So raw and honest, you never stop rooting for her. Gaspard Ulliel is my favourite actor; his performance in Juste la fin du monde by Xavier Dolan made me want to become an actor. I think the vulnerability he allowed himself on screen is irreplaceable. Also, people who worked with him only have good things to say about him, I admire that a lot. I’m very sad he’s not here anymore.

My most recent deep dive:
Drama school is a constant deep dive. You are always obsessing over words that are not your own. So fun, but I wish I could reset my brain like a hard disk from time to time.

Last film that made me laugh:
I watch Rocco and His Brothers by Visconti quite regularly. The scene at the beginning, where Rosaria, the mother of the five brothers, kicks them out of bed so that they can go off and earn money on the snowy streets of Milan, always makes me laugh. Reminds me so much of the chaos of growing up with five siblings and the mornings in our family home.
Left Underwear Celine Homme
Shorts Vivienne Westwood, socks and sneakers Celine Homme
Last film that made me cry:
At Easter, I rewatched the last Harry Potter movie after not having seen it for a long time. The scene where Harry tries to comfort Hermione with a dance in their tent, after Ron has run off, kills me every time. Such a beautiful and honest on-screen moment of non-romantic intimacy between a man and a woman.
Underwear and socks Celine Homme, vintage boots
My go-to outfit as of late consists of:
Pair of good quality loafers (hoping mine survive the spring), good jeans and a t-shirt with a subtle crop, cashmere sweater if it’s chilly outside.
