Unearthed
Arab masculinity, reimagined. Mohamed Benhadda, Qaher Harhash, and Abdallah El Farjani carry themselves with a quiet presence, their movements deliberate yet effortless. Their gaze traces histories that stretch across generations and geographies, yet they remain unburdened by them, leaving space for individuality, reflection, and self-assurance.
On runways from Paris to Milan, and across editorials on the global fashion stage, they command attention not through spectacle, but through presence. Each frame, each stride, reflects a confidence that is natural, unforced, and authentic. They are cover stars because of the way they inhabit space, quietly shifting perceptions of what it means to be an Arab man in today’s world. Mohamed, Qaher, and Abdallah remind us that being oneself, fully and unapologetically, is always enough.

Qaher Harhash
Born in East Jerusalem, Qaher Harhash’s journey into the fashion world began against a backdrop of adversity. Despite facing systemic barriers and rejections from local agencies due to his Palestinian heritage, his unique look and compelling presence soon caught the attention of major agencies.
He has graced the runways of esteemed fashion houses such as Jean Paul Gaultier, Dolce & Gabbana, Hermès, Corneliani, and GmbH. In addition to his modelling achievements, Harhash has ventured into acting with his debut role in the film Stress Positions (2024). Beyond his professional endeavours, Harhash is an advocate for Palestinian representation in the fashion industry. He has openly addressed issues of racism and underrepresentation.

Mohamed Benhadda
With a gaze that lingers between mystery and candour, Mohamed Benhadda is the kind of face fashion can’t ignore. Algerian by heritage, with a cascade of long brown hair that feels both rebellious and refined, he embodies a new generation of beauty—fluid, magnetic, and unafraid. His ascent has been marked by standout moments: starring in Prada’s SS25 campaign, fronting Adidas Campus 00’s, walking Alexander McQueen’s Fall/Winter 2025 show, and Issey Miyake’s Pre-Fall 2025 show at Paris Fashion Week. Tall, lean, and enigmatic, Benhadda carries a presence that translates seamlessly from runway to campaign to our cover.

Abdallah El Farjani
Abdallah El Farjani moves through fashion with the quiet authority of someone fully at ease in his own skin. Of Libyan and Sudanese heritage, his presence carries both elegance and intensity, a rare combination that commands the lens and the runway alike. From commanding the Fall/Winter 2025 Solid Homme campaign to embodying the energy of Kolor and Mihara Yasuhiro shows, El Farjani’s work is defined by fluidity and conviction.
