During the Cannes Film Festival, photographer and producer Olga Gasnier, founder of Aglography, set out to capture the unique atmosphere that transforms Cannes into the world capital of cinema each May.
The editorial began at the iconic Palais des Festivals, surrounded by festival posters, security barriers, photographers, film enthusiasts, and visitors strolling through the heart of the event. This vibrant setting provided an authentic glimpse into the energy and excitement that define Cannes during the festival season.
The story then moved to the legendary Hôtel Martinez and its iconic pier, where the beauty of the French Riviera served as a breathtaking backdrop. Against the Mediterranean Sea and the glamour of Cannes, model Sofia embodied effortless sophistication wearing creations by Margot VII, a Parisian fashion house renowned for its refined craftsmanship, feminine silhouettes, and dedication to timeless elegance. Her look was complemented by the exquisite Thalie Mini Cabochon Crystal Evening Bag, adding a touch of sparkle worthy of the red carpet atmosphere.
The editorial was styled by Valeryia Belaya, while makeup and hair were created by Falak Amaar, an internationally recognized makeup artist and educator based between Dubai, London, and Singapore. Together, in the showroom of Fashion AI Expo in Cannes the team crafted a visual story celebrating modern femininity, luxury, and the enduring allure of Cannes.
Produced as part of Fashion AI Expo, the editorial explores the intersection of fashion, creativity, and innovation while showcasing the unique atmosphere that makes the Cannes Film Festival one of the most inspiring cultural events in the world.
