Aydin designed the Cappadocia-inspired collection using an iPad Pro and Apple Pencil Pro. French director Neels Castillon filmed its sunrise runway show in Cappadocia’s Gulludere Valley with an iPhone 18 Pro Max.
In a second social media post, Cook said: “A great visit with our incredible teams at Apple Bağdat Street and Benji, the designer and founder of Les Benjamins!”
Cook led Apple as chief executive officer from 2011 until September 2026, when he moved into the role of executive chairman of the company’s board of directors. John Ternus succeeded him as CEO.
