Welcome to a brand-new season of The Most!
Today's guest is Mous Lamrabat, who as far as Dominique is concerned is not just a photographer, but a visual alchemist spinning gold through his lens.
The award-winning Moroccan-Belgian image maker has become a global sensation known for his colour-drenched, culture-infused art photography and dreamy fashion magazine covers. GQ, YSL Beauty, ELLE, Vanity Fair, Burberry, Chanel – Mous Lamrabat has left his mark on them all.
Having first met and collaborated years ago, Mous and Dominique discuss his journey from growing up with baller dreams to becoming a global creative force. They talk about soul-searching, understanding culture, the sacrifices shaping his vision, the backstage stories behind his game-changing collabs, and the iconic figureheads he has lensed—bonding over their shared work with Pharrell Williams.
Mous also opens up about societal hurts, the plans and dreamscapes to come, how to produce a fashion shoot in the desert, his first monograph ‘Mousganistan’ and the lasting collaboration with his life partner and top stylist Lisa Lapauw.

Belgian contemporary artist Rinus Van de Velde joins Dominique Nzeyimana in the loft.
With a career spanning over 20 years, Rinus has enchanted the international art world and is hailed for his powerfully fluid drawings and texts. His artistic practice spans drawing, painting, sculpture, installation and film - opening portals to multiple realities.
Rinus and Dominique have a meeting of minds about the artist’s changing relationship with nostalgia, expansion, the magic of drawing, learning from his artistic forefathers and the enduring impact of Paul McCarthy, Raymond Pettibon and Franz West.
You’ll also get the story behind his deep bond with gallerist Tim Van Laere and how their partnership came to be.
From Rinus’ first fantasies of creation, learning to advocate for his art to producing internationally raved-about exhibitions across continents: you’ll hear all about it from the man behind the masterpieces himself.
A true Modern Great!

Ghina Bazzi is the first world-class chef to be featured on The Most.
Classically trained at the highest level, the Lebanese-born, Antwerp-based food entrepreneur joins Dominique at the loft to recount her earliest days moving to Sierra Leone from Beirut and how that shaped her personally and professionally.
The two dive into Ghina’s formative years in the high-demand kitchens of multi-Michelin-star chefs, the heart-breaking decisions she had to make and the hard times that led her from hosting sold-out culinary nights to the inception of her current dream and Antwerp's newest hotspot, her deli ‘SUR’.
Ghina also discusses the perks of being best friends with Raf Simons’ right-hand person Bianca Quets Luzi and how she uses weightlifting as a tool to channel some of her self-described “aggressive energy”.
