DUBAI: French-Algerian model Loli Bahia gave her followers a behind-the-scenes look at Saint Laurent’s summer campaign, “Respiro,” posting a series of images from the Mediterranean shoot on Instagram.
The campaign was created by the French label’s creative director, Belgian designer Anthony Vaccarello, and photographed by South African photographer Henrik Purienne along the Mediterranean coast. “Respiro” translates from Italian as “breath.”
“Saint Laurent Respiro by Anthony Vaccarello, shot by Henrik Purienne,” Bahia wrote in her caption.
Her images captured the relaxed, sun-bleached mood of the shoot. In one frame, she posed with two fellow models in black hooded toweling robes in a garden.
Other shots showed her in a red belted dress inside a room with line-drawing murals, a green ruffled taffeta gown, and an olive swimsuit holding a transparent Saint Laurent surfboard on the beach. A final portrait showed her at the shoreline in a diving mask.
