Harbor Leisure is a fashion editorial photographed by Lawrence Mikel with model Karen Rivero, published in the printed edition MALVIE Tropical Paradise 73, October 2026, where it is the cover story. In the photographer's words: "A sunlit marina editorial moving from the softness of a gingham picnic to the confidence of golden-hour dockside fashion, exploring leisure, femininity and retro-inspired summer style."

About Harbor Leisure

Harbor Leisure begins on the grass by the water. Karen Rivero lies on a pink gingham blanket in a yellow gingham sundress, a yellow headscarf and cat-eye sunglasses, with a wicker picnic basket, a bouquet of sunflowers and roses, pearls and a book. Behind her, white yachts and masts line the harbour.


As the light turns gold, Lawrence Mikel moves to the docks. In a backless navy polka-dot halter dress, a white headband and the same sunglasses, she leans on the gangway rails, sits on the pier above the water and rests against a concrete piling, the marina glowing behind her. Playful and polished, it is retro summer style at its most relaxed.
