Description

This editorial fashion image features a model arching dramatically in a dynamic pose against a distressed, mottled stone wall and dark floor. The subject wears a black mesh crop top paired with a long, voluminous black skirt detailed with cascading vertical fringe ribbons, completing the look with black footwear. The composition is captured with a vertical framing and soft, directional lighting that highlights the textures of the apparel and the weathered backdrop. Philip-Daniel Ducasse photographed the piece for the Byredo Bal d’Afrique 2026 project, with fashion styling by Raphael Hirsch.
