Massimo Dutti heads to Los Angeles for “The Audition,” an editorial following Connor Newall and Jimmy Brighton, two models currently pursuing acting careers. Moving between studio lots, casting spaces, and the streets surrounding Hollywood production sets, the pair occupies the space between aspiration and opportunity.
Massimo Dutti “The Audition”
The imagery alternates black-and-white frames reminiscent of screen tests with sunlit moments across Los Angeles, capturing the routines, waiting, and optimism that shape life for many young actors in the city.
Massimo Dutti reaches for relaxed tailoring, knit polos, lightweight jackets, and loose trousers that work for both an audition room and the hours spent navigating the city afterward. Neutral tones and understated silhouettes keep the focus on the men wearing them, in line with the edit’s interest in character.
Casting Connor and Jimmy as versions of themselves, “The Audition” becomes a portrait of ambition and the everyday reality behind a Hollywood career.
Two models also anchor Massimo Dutti’s Lanzarote trip, where the brand works through a summer wardrobe across the island’s volcanic coastline.
