Berlin-born creative Melanie Kieback has built a world where fashion and film intertwine. “I’ve learned to walk through the world with a lens — sometimes literally, sometimes just in my mind,” she says, wearing CHANEL for her Schön! 49 story. A model, photographer, and storyteller, she captures things typically left unseen. “I’m focusing on being more behind the camera again and reconnecting with my art,” she shares. “One of my long-term projects is creating a book that brings together visuals and storytelling in a very personal way.”

Reinvention begins with a quiet shift. In this Schön! 49 editorial, model Malte Legène shape shifts, drifting through versions of herself while wearing looks by Valentino, Elie Saab, and others. Lensed by Dennis Stenild with fashion by Maria Angelova and hair Anne Krarup, this editorial serves as a reflection of the selves we’ve been, the ones we’re becoming, and the ones waiting just under the surface.

To dress is to participate in a collective narrative of becoming. Individuality does not exist in isolation; it thrives as part of something greater. An affirmation that we belong not because we blend in, but because we contribute — distinctly, unapologetically — to the evolving story of who we are. This Schön! 49 editorial, photographed in Tokyo, was lensed by Yuji Watanabe with fashion by Ki Ukei who styles Mao Takahashi in looks by Junya Watanabe, Noir Kei Ninomiya, and others. Hair by stylist Tenju and make up by Tamayo Yamamoto.
