About

For 'The Bridge', Esquire Middle East presents a menswear editorial series that explores architectural surroundings and layered textures. Captured by photographer David Sessions, the project features models Aziz Bah, Duncan Yair, and Grego Belau in diverse European urban landscapes, ranging from stone bridges and waterfront steps to city parks. The styling, curated by fashion editor Nicholas Galletti, leans into a palette of earthy tones, desaturated greys, and heavy layering, including shearling-lined coats and velvet outerwear. Production, handled by Steff Hawker with hair styling by Massa Yahiro, maintains a cinematic focus throughout the series. The work utilizes natural light to complement the industrial and historical backdrops, creating a cohesive editorial aesthetic.
