Willy Vanderperre

Willy Vanderperre is a fashion photographer who has over the last couple years really risen to be at the top of his game. Born in 1971 in Belgium Vanderperre studied Photography and Fashion at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp, which he attended alongside many of the key Belgian fashion designers of his generation, mainly his longstanding collaborator Raf Simons. Vanderperre regularly contributes to magazines including Arena Homme +, Another Magazine, Pop, New York Times, V and i-D. His advertising campaigns include Dior Homme, Raf Simons and Jil Sander. As a member of that very select group of photographers responsible for visualizing contemporary fashion through high end editorials and advertising Willy Vanderperre has cultivated an air of mystery due to the privacy of his practice. His is not the image of the jet-set high-glam fashion scenester staggering from Fashion Week to Fashion Week, but rather that of a meticulous and cerebral visual artist carefully exploring his ideas on the behalf of the brands and magazines that keep him in heavy rotation. As such Mr. Vanderperre has shot for a wide array of clients that run from V to Arena Homme Plus, Fantastic Man, ID and Love to Jil Sander, Proenza Schouler, Prada, Raf Simons, Givenchy and Dior Homme. For each client he remains respectful of the central ethos of the given brand thus giving his imagery great range and innovation even as he keeps the graphic discipline that is a signature of his photographs. In this exclusive interview with MDX Willy Vanderperre outlines the roots of his vision, his thoughts on fashion films and the emotional drive that is the key impulse behind his image-making.
