I want to highlight the importance of sustainability through artistic and cinematic captures that will hopefully be universally embraced. I believe we can achieve great results by stimulating the mindset towards green initiatives in a creative way” said Jessica.

Multi-angle cameras will follow Jessica as she explores Eco Centro, the hub for Soneva’s “Waste-to-Wealth” initiatives, as well as breath-taking sights, including crystal-clear lagoons, eco-friendly villas, and castaway boat rides to heavenly deserted islands.
In line with the green concept, the shoot will feature a combination of haute couture, ready-to-wear, and accessory pieces and include no leather, fur, or feathers. Eleven fashion and accessory collections were flown in from the UK, Italy, UAE, Turkey, Lebanon, Australia, and Vietnam.
