Oskar Gyllenswärd Interview
Each month, we ask a photographer to picture a Corneliani Travel Jacket - the iconic overshirt- on someone, somewhere in the world. These shots were taken in the archipelago just outside of Stockholm by Oskar Gyllenswärd, a Swedish-born photographer whose work has taken him all over the world and been featured in the likes of Vogue, L’Officiel and Globe-Trotter campaigns. Inspired by everyday scenes and classic portraiture, he cleverly uses light to create images with a relaxed, almost intimate feel – like the shots he has taken of the Corneliani Travel Jacket.
Where did you take these pictures?
Oskar Gyllenswärd : «At our summer house on a small island in the archipelago outside of Stockholm».
Who’s wearing the Travel shirt-jacket?
Oskar Gyllenswärd: «As it’s a perfect fit with my wardrobe, I decided to wear it myself».
What was the mood you were trying to convey?
Oskar Gyllenswärd: «Peace. Whenever I go to the island, I find inspiration in the scenes and how the light plays across the rocks and trees and their textures. It’s my retreat – I can always find peace of mind there».

How did the Corneliani Travel jacket do – what’s your review of it?
