i-D Magazine’s newest cover stars are giving face and full-on filmmaker energy. Kristen Stewart and Imogen Poots front the digital cover of i-D in a striking shoot by Chessa Subbiondo and styled by Esther Matilla.
Their connection is a creative electricity captured in every frame. The feature celebrates The Chronology of Water, Stewart’s long-awaited directorial debut, starring Poots in a story that dives deep into memory, rage, and womanhood.
Shot over 32 days in Latvia and Malta, the film is raw, radical, and deeply personal. Against a washed-out LA backdrop, the styling mirrors the emotional palette: Poots reclines in a rich oxblood sweatshirt and powder-blue satin shorts, while Stewart lounges in chartreuse and denim.
Brands like MM6 Maison Margiela, Prada, and Calvin Klein are key to the wardrobe. It’s structured, sensual, and stripped back. There’s intimacy in the textures, tension in the silhouettes, and chemistry in every glance.
