Galilea Montijo: From México to the World
Photographer: @fernando.dumas
This season, fashion is no longer decoration — it is declaration. Galilea Montijo emerges in this editorial as a living canvas of Mexican artistry, embodying strength, heritage, and reinvention. With every braid, gown, and shimmer, she becomes a narrative of power. Shot by Fernando Dumas, styled & creatively directed by Marmol Viejo, with makeup by Waithsman and hair by Jorge Beltrán Hair & Aldo EK, the story is not just fashion — it is manifesto.
Sculptural Burgundy Elegance
Galilea steps into the spotlight in a draped burgundy gown with golden detailing, its folds sculpted to perfection like architectural velvet. The cut elongates her figure, cinching at the waist with a gilded accent that glimmers like armor.
Her hair, crafted by @jorgebeltranhair, is swept into a sleek high bun, mirror-shine smooth, framing her shoulders like a crown of discipline.
Her makeup by @waithsman is refined: a nude satin lip, precision contour, and a soft smoky gaze. Every stroke emphasizes structure, letting elegance breathe in simplicity.
Concept: Old Hollywood reimagined — minimalism elevated to opulence. This look whispers power rather than shouts it, proving that restraint can be the ultimate drama.
