A summer of movement, freedom, and effortless style — captured in Cape Town

Cape Town served as the scenic canvas for a new lifestyle feature starring Nigerian creative GABRIEL UNIGWE, styled and produced by independent fashion platform THE BEAU GUIDE, in a visual story that celebrates freedom, travel, and timeless style.

This seasonal editorial spotlights a pair of BIRKENSTOCK EVA silhouettes — the BOSTON EVA and ARIZONA EVA in the refined EGGSHELL tone — styled against the vast coastal beauty of the Mother City. The imagery captures barefoot elegance and a sense of grounded movement, with BIRKENSTOCK styles anchoring every step.

Crafted from one-piece molded EVA, these lightweight silhouettes are water-resistant, easy to wipe down, and perfect for beach settings — blending durability with the timeless, structured aesthetic BIRKENSTOCK is celebrated for. Whether oceanside, in the city, or somewhere in between, the EVA range offers freedom of movement without compromising on elegance.

“There’s a simplicity to these shoes that mirrors the way I want to live — light,grounded, and always moving,” says Gabriel Unigwe, who styled his looks with clean layers and neutral tones to reflect his nomadic spirit.

Shot as a visual travel diary, rather than a traditional campaign, this story is an ode to summer movement, personal style, and the quiet confidence of everyday wear. With a focus on lifestyle and location, it reflects the kind of effortless dressing that’s both practical and beautiful
