The opening day of the Hyères Fashion and Photography Festival

The Hyères Fashion and Photography Festival, of which SAYWHO is this year’s partner, opened the doors of the Villa Noailles under a Côte d’Azur sun, although not always at the rendezvous. During five days, concerts, presentations, masterclasses, cocktails and exhibitions will punctuate the life of the small town of Var, with the epicentre of the festivities of the famous residence of Charles and Marie-Laure de Noailles, designed by Robert Mallet-Stevens.

The first day, devoted to the presentation of the photography section, introduced its jury, chaired by the demigod William Klein as well as the 10 finalists for the various awards of the Festival. Peroni and Jackson (& his comptuer band) were in charge of the opening cocktail traditionally given in the gardens but shortened by the rain. For dinner, it was the Chanel House that delighted the Parisian contingent in exile at the Marais restaurant, well known to regulars. Review of the first day.
