“If you want to shoot fashion in New York, you’re probably going to hang out in very trendy spots,” the photographer @em.regnier said. And if you want to photograph fashion in Abidjan, Ivory Coast, you do the same thing. In the city’s vibrant markets, every day feels like fashion week, @em.regnier said. “This is the place you go to get your clothes, or to be beautiful.” This winter, while spending time in #Abidjan, where she lived for a year in 2014, she wandered the city’s markets. As a photographer, her target wasn’t necessarily fashion; instead, she went to photograph women with style and attitude. Most of the women weren’t wealthy. Many went to the markets to buy fabric for tailors to make their clothing; some shopped for secondhand clothing. “There’s something very authentic about their styles,” she said. She produced her images using the same approach she used for another project, about hair. In both series, a number of the photos — like this one — are presented in pairs. A local photographer introduced her to the technique of cutting the negatives in half and taping 2 images together; beauty photographers in Abidjan use this trick to help women see different perspectives. Assatou Coulibaly, pictured here, works in one of the markets that @em.regnier frequented. Watch our #InstagramStory to see more photos and to read the full essay.
