Monocle Magazine

Jun 2025

For Monocle Magazine's 'A trip to Cairo,' photographer Tung Walsh captures a refined fashion editorial that navigates the intersection of urban exploration and domestic intimacy. The series features model Louise de Chevigny in a collection of silhouettes ranging from voluminous midi dresses to structured swimwear, set against the backdrop of historic Egyptian architecture and carefully curated interiors. The project channels a travelogue aesthetic, balancing hard light and warm, sun-drenched palettes to evoke a specific sense of place. Through the use of natural light and tactile flash, the imagery leans into a blend of candid reportage and polished styling. Hair by Raphael Salley and makeup by Sunao Takahashi provide a clean, consistent thread throughout the diverse settings, tying together the varied textures of the wardrobe.
