This editorial, photographed by Diane Lac, is a cultural snapshot of a generation navigating their identity in a city that’s rapidly transforming. They are the middle class, the fashion scene is booming, the rave scenes are fun, it’s post-war, and they’re celebrating all the time. The series captures the raw, unfiltered essence of these young men, blending streetwear, Western, and traditional influences, as well as DIY aesthetics. From motorbike rides through chaotic streets to quiet moments in hidden alleyways, the photographs reflect the duality of Saigon: a city rooted in history yet pulsing with the energy of exciting change.
