Monocle Magazine: A trip to Cairo

Jun 2025

For Monocle Magazine's 'A trip to Cairo,' photographer Tung Walsh captures a travel-inspired fashion editorial that juxtaposes the city's historic architectural landmarks with intimate, domestic portraiture. The series leans into a warm, sun-drenched aesthetic, utilizing both natural light and directed flash to highlight the interplay of crisp urban shadows against soft, tactile interiors. Featuring model Louise de Chevigny, the project showcases a curated wardrobe that blends structural silhouettes with relaxed, travel-ready textures. With hair styling by Raphael Salley and makeup by Sunao Takahashi, the visual narrative alternates between wide-angle balcony views of the cityscape and candid, quiet moments inside traditional dwellings, unified by a consistent editorial eye.
