A photographic language between fashion and intimacy

Fashion Eye Ibiza
In 2026, Lachlan Bailey photographed Fashion Eye Ibiza, published by Louis Vuitton. The book presents his vision of Ibiza beyond its familiar nightlife and luxury imagery, exploring the island through its landscapes, architecture, people, nature and distinctive Mediterranean atmosphere.
Photographed primarily between 2022 and 2024, the series reveals a more intimate side of Ibiza, moving between sun-drenched landscapes, everyday encounters and nocturnal scenes.
Fashion Eye Ibiza features 112 pages of Bailey’s photography and forms part of Louis Vuitton’s Fashion Eye collection, dedicated to destinations seen through the perspective of contemporary photographers.
