A DRESS FOR A LEGEND BU MAILIS

We live in Florida — where nature itself conspired to become the perfect set. Here, you’ll find palms, columns, the ocean, and that dense tropical forest with hanging vines where it’s easy to imagine yourself as a timeless heroine — from a legend, a dream, or a film that hasn’t been made yet.

And it was for this kind of story that we brought in a dress. Not just beautiful — but cinematic. It’s a director’s tool: it shapes a look, sets a mood, transforms. Long, flowing, soft pink. The silhouette floats, the fabric breathes. It gently covers the shoulders and arms, falling across the body without force or tension. Its mission is to highlight — not to distract. And in that, it’s genius.

At Studio Maylis, a dress isn’t just a garment. It’s part of the visual script we write with you. You don’t need to rush out shopping or spend hours scrolling “what to wear” — we’ve already found it. It’s here. And it’s waiting for the one who’s ready to become part of our story — and the stories of dozens of indie magazines we work with daily.

Our makeup artists will create a soft, featherlight look — something that feels like a breeze. We won’t repaint you — we’ll reveal you. And we know exactly where to go: locations where every curve of fabric, every movement, falls into conversation with the frame. A tropical forest with “Avatar” depth, a beach where nothing interrupts the story — just wind, water, and you. Architecture with whispers of the ancient East. Or a forgotten courtyard full of dried palm leaves and faded blooms that look like they waited for this scene.

With each of these backdrops, the dress speaks differently. In one, it’s a fairytale. In another — bold power. Somewhere else — untouchable fragility. Depending on the styling, makeup, and accessories, we can dive into any visual genre. Want to be a forest nymph? Done. A goddess in desert ruins? Absolutely. Or simply yourself — in full energy and presence, barefoot by the sea.

We create photoshoots that land in the pages of independent fashion magazines — the kind that care about stories. That’s where our legends go. And this dress is our newest tool in that beautiful, ongoing process.

Glossy Loves Details – Try Starting with a Hat

In the world of glossy magazines, every detail matters. The gaze, the pose, the lighting—all work together to create an image that lingers in memory. But there’s one element that can transform even the simplest look, adding drama, elegance, and charm. A hat.

The magic of a hat lies in its ability to do more than just complete an outfit—it sets the mood, defines character, and captures attention. Throughout fashion history, hats have played a special role, becoming the signature of stylish and confident women. A single movement—tilting a wide-brimmed hat—adds mystery; a chic beret brings a touch of French charm; a sleek boater hat creates a playful, effortless vibe.

Imagine yourself on the pages of a glossy magazine. The camera captures the moment as you subtly lift the brim of your hat, casting a mysterious glance into the lens. Light gently glides over the edges, accentuating the contours of your face and adding depth to your look. In that instant, you are not just a model—you are a story waiting to be unraveled. These are the images that captivate, inspire, and remain unforgettable. A hat becomes the signature accent that turns an ordinary photograph into a work of art.

Today, as accessories make a powerful comeback, hats are once again taking center stage. They complete a look, express emotions, and highlight individuality. However, not every hat is worthy of a glossy feature. The right accessory must be not only stylish but also of the highest quality—because under the camera’s lens, every detail matters.

That’s why Mailis Media is excited to introduce VARY, a brand that crafts exquisite handmade hats. Soon, clients of the Mailis Studio will have access to the finest VARY designs, elevating their photoshoots to editorial-level elegance.

A hat photoshoot is more than just a session—it’s a chance to see yourself in a new light, to embrace your allure, and to capture images that you’ll admire again and again. And when those images grace the pages of a glossy magazine, the sense of confidence and self-worth becomes even stronger.

Mailis Media and VARY are here to create these moments for you—turning your fashion shoot into an experience worthy of the world’s top editorials.

What is the most important accessory on set, according to Natalia Mailis?

When people prepare for a photoshoot, they think about details: outfits, jewelry, shoes, makeup. All of this matters, but there is one accessory you can’t buy in a boutique, can’t match to your style, and can’t take off after the shoot. Your eyes.

Yes, the gaze is what brings a photo to life, makes it captivating, and forces people to stop and stare. Luxury accessories can highlight status, the perfect outfit can scream style, but if the eyes are empty, the photo remains just a pretty picture.

📸 Your eyes create the magic of the shot

Soft and dreamy? Bold and powerful? Seductive? Or the kind that pierces straight through the soul? The same outfit can look entirely different depending on the gaze. That’s why the best photographers don’t just work with poses—they work with the energy of the model.

Why are the eyes the most powerful tool in a photoshoot?

Because they tell a story. Think of the most iconic images in history—everything is in the eyes. The camera captures more than just your appearance; it captures your energy, your essence, your emotions.

🖤 How to unlock the power of your gaze?

• Relax and live in the moment instead of trying to look “perfect.”

• Don’t be afraid of emotions—your eyes should speak.

• Trust the photographer—I will help you find the right mood and capture that unforgettable shot.

So if you think the most important part of a shoot is brands and accessories, think again. True magic is in the eyes.
