Through radical compositional fragmentation, Sukan transforms party documentation into geometric abstraction that echoes both Constructivist photography and contemporary critical discourse on fashion's objectification. By framing exclusively legs, high heels, and their mirror reflections on wet floors, the photograph deconstructs the fashion body into pure line, form, and repeated pattern. The top-down perspective eliminates faces, identities, and individual narratives, reducing human presence to elegant limbs and expensive footwear—a visual metaphor for fashion's reduction of identity to surface and silhouette. Yet the image operates on multiple levels: it's simultaneously sensual document, formal geometric study, and implicit commentary. The reflective surface doubles every element, creating symmetrical compositions from asymmetrical reality. This doubling might reference fashion's own mechanisms—how it creates desire through reflection, aspiration, and multiplication of images. The high-contrast black and white rendering emphasizes graphic qualities over atmospheric mood, positioning the work closer to fine art photography than fashion editorial, though it emerged from editorial context.
 
Sükan created the ‘La Notte’ series as he was working for international magazines documenting the fashion shows and backstage as well as the social times of the fashion world in Paris, Milan, London, and NY between the years 2004-2010. ‘La Notte’ is mainly from one specific costume party that is given by Carine Roitfeld of French Vogue in Paris. The party was before the social media era specifically before the Instagram era which makes it very private and has not been shown anywhere else.
