Tory Burch FW 2024 Campaign, Lensed in Lisbon by Jamie Hawkesworth

Tory Burch FW 2024 Campaign, Lensed in Lisbon by Jamie Hawkesworth

‘Experimental’ is not a word used over the last 20 years to describe designer Tory Burch [IG]. When she presented her Fall 2024 collection at the New York Public Library last February, a new adjective arose to describe Burch — one we love. The word was ‘daring’.

Vogue Runway summed up the Fall 2024 Tory Burch collection, writing: “Let’s just say she’s come a long way from the people-pleasing crystal embellished tunics and Reva flats that were her earliest successes.”

The Fall 2024 campaign photographed by Jamie Hawkesworth [IG] in Lisbon, Portugal plays with light and quiet joy. It captures Tory Burch’s new word — which is good — because fashion hammers the same words to death. We need some new words — in this case ‘sublime’.

Tory Burch SS2024 Campaign Starts a Ruckus in Marfa, Texas with Grace, Ida and Selena

Tory Burch SS2024 Campaign Starts a Ruckus in Marfa, Texas with Grace, Ida and Selena

Tory Burch [IG] strikes up the band, taking her Spring-Summer 2024 Campaign to Marfa, Texas, a small desert town in west Texas. population 1,748. Marfa has a very big reach both east and west as an arts center. Those damn liberals keep showing up in Marfa, trying to wreck the whole state of Texas, from the point of view of Governor Greg Abbott.

In fact, the arrival of this great campaign starring Grace Elizabeth, Ida Heiner and Selena Forrest is deeply political — perfectly timed as a clapback to the freakin’ absurd MAGA meltdown over Taylor Swift this week.

Only Taylor Swift appearing on horseback, disguised as a member of the Texas Rangers, but then jumping off her stallion and into the street guns blazing [in the air] to save Grace, Ida and Selena from an impending arrest would make this advert any better. What is their crime? Disturbing the peace.

Photographer Jamie Hawkesworth [IG] would be stupified over the entire scene but covering all the action from every angle. Meanwhile Brian Molloy does an excellent job styling this production, with hair by Jimmy Paul and makeup by Dick Page.

Erykah Badu 'Radical, Relevant, Real' for Vogue March 2023 by Jamie Hawkesworth

Erykah Badu 'Radical, Relevant, Real' for Vogue March 2023 by Jamie Hawkesworth

Erykah Badu has been a doula for about 20 years, and was preparing for her first multiple birth of twins with mother Summer Walker when Vogue’s Chioma Nnadi connected with the certified Reiki master in her South-Dallas childhood home.

Alex Harrington styles the photo shoot for The Second Coming of Erykah Badu, showcasing the four-time Grammy winner wearing a metallic Marni x Erykah Badu coat on the cover and other unique fashion artworks from their new co-designed collection.

Those of us who know Erykah Badu indeed consider her to be a shamanic priestess of a higher order. Both her interview and video tour of her private spaces confirm that the spiritual persona suits her. In multiple aspects, Erykah Badu has always been lighter than air . . . ethereal and spiritual but also possessed of ancient wisdom.

DJ and producer Questlove, who first saw Badu at the 1996 Soul Train Awards in Los Angeles, reflects:

“She had on the tallest turban I’ve ever seen in my life,” he says. “It was like she was hiding a three-year-old standing on her head, that’s how tall her headwrap was. I was just transfixed.”

Tory Burch Fall 2022 Campaign by Jamie Hawkesworth Exudes American Optimism

Tory Burch Fall 2022 Campaign by Jamie Hawkesworth Exudes American Optimism

Adut Akech, Amanda Murphy, Andreea Diaconu, Lina Zhang and Nora Attal power their way through the streets of Manhattan with positive spirits and strong backbones in the Tory Burch Fall 2022 campaign..

Not only does Tory Burch design for the total woman, but she is one with a strong sense of civic responsibility and community involvement. In all honesty, the world doesn’t need another uber-successful young woman looking for her own truth, while having a weep-fest on Instagram.

“Oh, Anne,” you say. “Our young women are just looking for their own authenticity.”

I ask you: Do you know that right-wingers just narrowly won the Swedish election on September 14?

Emma Corrin Covers Vogue US August 2022 Lensed by Jamie Hawkesworth

Emma Corrin Covers Vogue US August 2022 Lensed by Jamie Hawkesworth

I know we are all very rattled over the anti-trans legislation in red states, but then Roe got shot down, too. AOC’s activism is very focused on Christian fascism and white nationalism in this moment. The end of our imperfect democracy is in sight — if we don’t fight this back by the 2024 election.

People I respect say “It’s do or die time,” and they are not exaggerating.

AOC is not worried about “he, she, it, they, them . . . “ in this moment. We are focused on the American Taliban increasingly riding roughshod over all of us. No disrespect intended to pronouns.

British Vogue August 2020 'Reset' Issue Honors Nature & Creatives

British Vogue August 2020 'Reset' Issue Honors Nature & Creatives

Photographer Nick Knight pays high compliments to British Vogue’s EIC Edward Enninful, explaining the mutual synergy that gave life to the first project of its kind for British Vogue’s August 2020 issue: the commissioning of 14 special covers that tapped Britain’s greatest artists and photographers from Tim Walker to Nadine Ijewere, David Hockney, Lubaina Himid and ‘yes’ Nick Knight. Expand the list to include Mert Alas, David Sims, Marcus Piggott, Jamie Hawkesworth, Juergen Teller, Alasdair McLellan, Martin Parr, David Bailey and Craig McDean.

In a followup to the magazine’s recent online auction in collaboration with Sharon Wolter Ferguson’s HEWI (Hardly Ever Wore It), this new project also makes British Vogue an engine of change and support for people in need. “The original prints of each depiction of nature – be it an everyday skyline or the memory of a place much missed – will be auctioned off in aid of Covid-19 relief charities later this year.”

British Vogue’s August Issue, Reset, and the 20-page story ‘All Across the Land’, written by British naturalist Helen Macdonald, supports a mission not only of showcasing the beautiful, but also highlighting that our planet is the living, breathing core of our human existence. As such, Edward Enninful’s 2020 mission is to RESET our relationship to nature.

Knight’s Reset cover was not the first publicity release, but it explains some highly-relevant backstory about the project. The debut cover for the project launch belongs to David Hockney.
