About

Dazed MENA explores intimacy and domesticity in ISSUE 02, a fashion editorial project captured by photographer Alexandra Alvarez Garcia. The series channels a nostalgic, raw aesthetic, utilizing vintage-inspired bathroom settings and soft light to frame its subjects in candid, textured compositions. Fashion styling by Omaima Salem leans into layered silhouettes, mixing graphic prints with mesh and structured knitwear. The editorial is supported by hair styling from Yumiko Hikage and detailed, polished makeup by Kanako Yoshida, with model Akuol Deng Atem featured prominently throughout the series.
