Abény Nhial is magnetic on the cover of our September issue

Abény Nhial is magnetic in Tiffany & Co. on the cover of our September issue

Gracing our September cover story is Abény Nhial, draped in Tiffany & Co. jewellery. Styled by Hannah Cooper, and captured through the evocative lens of Tim Ashton, Nhial becomes a muse of modern elegance, wearing pieces from Tiffany & Co.’s most iconic collections: Hardwear, T, Lock, and Knot. Each collection tells a story, one that intertwines strength, connection, and the beauty of form.

The Tiffany Hardwear collection wraps around Nhial like armour, bold chains glinting in the light, embodying the fierce edge of the luxury jeweller's designs. Powerful, unafraid and unapologetic, each link feels like a promise to one's self, while the Tiffany T pieces become a quiet undercurrent, a whisper of simplicity in their clean lines – a testament to minimalism’s lasting grace.

As Nhial moves for Ashton's lens, the Lock collection tightens its embrace, delicate yet unbreakable—symbolising bonds that transcend time. The bracelets clasp like secrets shared, moments of intimacy and trust locked away. And then there’s the Knot collection, its intricate twists wrapping around Nhial like a dance of infinity, embodying connection and continuity in every delicate curve – her quiet confidence, woven into the pieces, is magnetic.
