Mykonos: Private Flying Dress Photoshoot & Iconic Spots

Summary

Pose in vibrant flying dresses at Mykonos’ famous streets, churches, ruins and town views

You’ll slip into one of those famous flying dresses and pose at four classic Mykonos locations—a whitewashed church, ancient ruins above the sea, bright bougainvillea streets, and sweeping town views. With help from your local photographer and assistant (who makes that dress really fly), you’ll end up laughing more than you expect—and leave with hundreds of high-res photos to remember it all.

What’s the experience like?

We met near the Paraportiani church—honestly, I was nervous about the whole “flying dress photoshoot” thing. But our photographer (I think her name was Eleni?) just grinned and handed me this absurdly silky blue dress. The assistant set up a pop-up tent right there, so changing was less awkward than I expected. The wind off the Aegean made the fabric ripple before we even started. Eleni explained how she’d guide me through everything—no modeling experience needed, thank god.

First shots were outside the church. The light bounced off those white walls and I could smell someone’s morning coffee drifting from a window above us. The assistant would toss the train of my dress up on three—sometimes it landed perfectly, sometimes it got caught in my hair and we all cracked up. After that we moved to some ancient ruins with wild thyme growing between stones; I kept stepping on pebbles but Eleni said that’s part of the vibe. She showed me a few shots on her camera and honestly? I looked way cooler than I felt.

The best bit was this little street lined with bougainvillea—so pink it almost hurt my eyes. Some old guy nodded at us as he cycled past (I still wonder what he thought). We finished with a view over Mykonos town as the sun got higher, sweat sticking under the silk but somehow it didn’t matter anymore. By then I’d stopped caring if people stared or if my pose looked weird—I just felt sort of light, like maybe I could actually pull this off.
