In Dubai there's a pandemic, even though you can't see it

Over the last few months, nss magazine has been reporting on the impact of the health emergency on many cities around the world, discovering how, despite the distance and cultural differences, the lockdown ended up resembling the most important metropolises in the world. It's a common thread that connects Milano Sospesa, the empty offices of the City in London, the streets of Tokyo completely deserted. Looking at the images now arriving from Dubai, if it weren't for the masks, the health emergency would seem a distant memory. 

Julien Boudet, one of the most influential names in fashion and street style photography, was in the United Arab Emirates for a personal project, but there are many European citizens who have decided to move here, where the restrictions are less severe. "It's very refreshing to be there as you don't really feel like the Covid pandemic is there; besides the fact that you must wear the mask at all times, you can live a "regular" life, going to the beach, the pool... It's 30 degrees there, it's sunny all the time. I have a few friends who flew from France to "work from home" in Dubai, it's a pretty great idea", the photographer told nss magazine.
