Olya Che photographs Lena Panovikova in a skylit studio space that functions almost like a small apartment complete with a wooden table, white armchair and exposed beam. Panovikova is a Russian model with editorial credits in Grazia and Gala France and representation spanning major markets. The session mixes color and black-and-white film stocks, shifting between the two without committing to either as a dominant mode.

The styling moves from a black lace bra and skirt to a white textured bikini top worn with black trousers, then lands on a Gucci monogram bralette paired with men's white boxer shorts. That last combination is arguably the sharpest in the set. The photographer captures the shift and the closing frame, shot from behind as Panovikova pulls at her shoulder straps, bringing the quiet back but on different terms.
