LEANDRO DA SILVA
Leandro Da Silva has never been interested in fitting neatly into one category. While he first established himself as an international model, his career has naturally evolved into something far more expansive — spanning fashion, publishing, creative direction and visual storytelling. Driven by curiosity and an openness to opportunity, he has built a path that reflects both creative ambition and personal growth. His latest project, Nature of a Boy, explores masculinity, vulnerability and identity through an intimate lens, revealing a side of him that goes beyond fashion. Rooted in spirituality, nature and self-discovery, it marks a new chapter for a creative who believes that success isn’t about titles, but about staying true to yourself and trusting the journey.
NATURE
A change in light. The movement of water. The first signs of a new season. Nature is in a constant state of transformation. In a culture defined by immediacy, it offers something increasingly rare: patience. It unfolds at its own pace, reminding us that growth, change, and beauty cannot always be hurried. Its influence can be found everywhere. In the silhouettes we wear. in the spaces we inhabit. In the colours, textures, and forms that shape our visual language. This issue celebrates the enduring relationship between the natural world and creative expression. The artists who interpret it. The designers who borrow from it. The image-makers that capture it. To engage with nature is to engage with something both timeless and constantly changing - a paradox that has fascinated humanity for generations. A source of wonder and endless complexity.
The more closely we look, the more there is to see. Welcome to Numéro Netherlands #15 Nature.
