Movement director and choreographer <a href=\"\/\/models.com\/people\/ryan-chappell\">Ryan Chappell<\/a> is usually tasked with helping the process, bringing a quietly radical precision to fashion\u2019s visual language. Chappell shapes bodies not only into gestures but into stories, with a background that threads through musical cinema reveries, Vogue Italia archives, and the intimate spaces of global fashion sets. The Australian-born creative has emerged as an essential behind-the-scenes force, whether sculpting the silhouettes of Kendall Jenner for POP, guiding Selena Forrest\u2019s line of sight in an Isabel Marant campaign, or manipulating spatial illusion in campaigns for Jacquemus or Dazed Magazine. His work is rooted in a choreographic sensitivity to nuance, where a shoulder tilt or head angle can redirect the viewer\u2019s entire focus. A former dancer steeped in the traditions of Fred Astaire and Gene Kelly, Chappell channels movement into a visual medium where form, emotion, and fashion come alive. Models.com spoke to Chappell in Paris about balancing the energies of a diverse cast, amplifying storytelling, and grounding fantasy within the precise architecture of the body<\/p>\n<div class=\"introcredits\">\nEditor in Chief: <a href=\"\/\/models.com\/people\/stephan-moskovic\">Stephan Moskovic<\/a><br \/>\nEditorial Director and Interviewer: <a href=\"\/\/models.com\/people\/irene-ojo-felix\">Irene Ojo-Felix<\/a><br \/>\nManaging Editor: <a href=\"\/\/models.com\/people\/sasha-grinblat\">Sasha Grinblat<\/a><br \/>\nDirector &#038; Video Editor: <a href=\"\/\/models.com\/people\/davide-derocchi\">Davide Derocchi<\/a><br \/>\n1st camera assistant: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/scamorzsk8\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Matteo Vignola<\/a><br \/>\nProduction Assistant: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/mohamedibra_\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Mohamed Ibrahim Helaly<\/a><br \/>\nModel: <a href=\"\/\/models.com\/models\/farah-nieuwburg\">Farah Nieuwburg<\/a><br \/>\nSpecial Thanks: <a href=\"\/\/models.com\/agency\/The-Society-Management\">Society Management<\/a> and <a href=\"\/\/models.com\/people\/christopher-michael\">Christopher Michael<\/a> at Egos &#038; Icons\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Movement Director Ryan Chappell Defines Fashion\u2019s Flow So often, models are asked to contort their bodies in ways that make static images and everyday products come to life.
