“Don’t Go to Basateen At Night”

"Ne va pas à Basateen la nuit"

Introducing FW25: “إِيَّاك تروح البساتين بليل” (Don’t Go to Basateen At Night).

The campaign takes its name from a warning that echoed across generations: matenzelsh el basateen beleil — don’t go to Basateen at night. For those who came before, the phrase carried a sense of protection, rooted in fear and perception. Basateen, like many neighborhoods, was seen as dangerous—a place to avoid after dark.

The reality, however, was different. Basateen was where friends gathered, where nights stretched into laughter and togetherness. It was not a place of menace, but of warmth. A place that revealed how what seems intimidating from the outside often holds the deepest beauty within.

At night, Cairo itself transforms. Streetlights glow. Rooftops brim with laughter. Tea glasses steam on plastic tables. Music drifts through narrow alleys. This is the Cairo the world rarely sees—a city of romance, tenderness, and poetry.

The stories told about places—and about people—rarely match the truth. Growing up between East and West makes this especially clear. Within communities, warnings and assumptions often shape how people see one another. In the West, that same gaze extends outward—reducing the Middle East to a distant silhouette, misunderstood, its beauty and generosity overlooked. “Don’t go to Basateen at night” becomes an invitation. An invitation to step into the unknown. To linger where one was told not to. To discover the grace that hides in shadow. To close the distance between self and “the other”—whether across the street or across the world.

At the heart of this campaign is the FW25 collection: pieces designed for the intimacy of everyday life that slip easily between function and self-expression. From textured staples to directional silhouettes, each piece channels a distinct mood while remaining rooted in timeless wearability.

Stories of Nothingness from Everywhere

Histoires de néant de partout

The SS25 collection features expertly tailored pieces crafted from breathable, natural fibres—made for the warmer months ahead—offering a modern take on timeless classics. Pieces designed for long days, late nights, and doing nothing in between.

Stories of Nothingness from Everywhere is a story told by those who lived it. Directed and shot entirely by MENA creatives who grew up between cultures, the campaign gave them full creative control to build something deeply personal.

Photographed by Dexter Navy alongside Director, Mariam El-Gendy, the campaign stars emerging voices Abdallah Diab and Bader El Ramly—artists in their own right whose presence extends far beyond the frame. Together, this team bridges past and present, east and west, Cairo and London.

Behind the Scenes

En coulisses

‘Grateful to have had my lifelong friend and brother, @zaatar, leading our trip in the White Desert for the Tefnut campaign. From growing up together running around the streets of Cairo, to diving, spear fishing, and exploring every corner of Egypt, your unwavering spirit and knowledge of the land has always been a compass for me.

Also a big thank you to Jilani and our amazing guides from the Farafrah Oasis for showing us the beauty and soul of the desert. It’s these experiences and friendships that continue to shape what Kotn stands for—honouring the timeless bond between nature, culture, and community.’

— Rami Helali, Co-founder and CEO
