Four types of women and four temperaments mingled during this session, like the sensual scents of incense and Eastern oils. The models Angelika Oleksy, Emila Bubek, Monika Witek and Deniz Mrozik seduced, intrigued, envied and tempted. They successfully used their full feminine potential and worked hard to ensure that the final result of the session was the best possible.

The models presented ethnic necklaces made in Morocco’s High Atlas Mountains. The necklaces are made from dyed and carved camel bone and semi-precious stones collected in the mountains (amethyst, hematite, agate, jasper and onyx). The necklaces are original, come in various styles and are a mixture of the experiences of amateur artists who create the ornaments, passing their experience and ideas from generation to generation.

The girls were covered, among other things, with Moroccan silk shawls made from agave silk. Agave silk is a Moroccan invention. The fibers are obtained from the leaves of agaves growing wild in Morocco’s fields and meadows. Material made from the plant has an extraordinary sheen, is delicate and cool to the touch. It does not heat up from contact with the body and wonderfully protects against heat and the blazing sun.
