'Portrait of a Baye Fall'

In frame: @mooh_toxicoman 🙏 🖤

Bonjour, je m'appelle Ellie, tu es un Rastafari ?
Bonjour. Je suis Momo, un Baye Fall.
Baye Fall ? Qu'est-ce que c'est ?

The Baye Fall, often mistaken for Rastafarians, are part of Senegal’s Mouride Brotherhood, founded in 1883 by Cheikh Ahmadou Bamba. Named after Ibrahima Fall—known as the "architect" of the sect's philosophy —they stand out with their striking locked hair, patchwork clothing, and spiritual amulets.

Momo, born in Saint Louis, Senegal, and now based in Paris, proudly wears a leather necklace featuring 'Ibra’s' photo as a tribute. 👌

'La Geste de l'Élégant' 📖 📚

--

Can elegance be taught?
Monsieur Mouele believes it's already within you.
Hidden. Waiting.
And these men, they can help you find yours.
