With music curated by the fashion world’s leading sound director Michel Gaubert, the show’s enigmatic setting was a stunning backdrop for Faten’s expressive and cinematic work. The three pieces used, 'Trenchcoat', 'Florin Court' and 'Fin Aout, Debut Septembre', all taken from Faten’s fifth album, 'Afterpoem', provided the perfect accompaniment to the visually enchanting event
