Phuang Malai 2026

Description

This editorial image for Vogue Polska's Phuang Malai project features model Lydia Reid standing at a vibrant outdoor market stall. She wears a long-sleeved metallic dress with a subtle floral print and holds a translucent yellow plastic bag containing produce. The surrounding market displays numerous fruits individually wrapped in protective netting on blue and orange-covered tables, with bottled goods and hanging merchandise visible in the background. Natural daylight illuminates the scene, highlighting the textures of the metallic fabric and the woven netting on the fruit. The composition captures an observational, documentary-style aesthetic with muted colour grading and authentic street-level atmosphere. Styling is by Ashlee Barrett-Bourmier, with casting directed by Marina Fairfax.
