Prada Patrons Rafael Pavarotti's Exquisite Story for Perfect Magazine September 2024
/
AOC is delighted to see Rafael Pavarotti’s [IG] Black beauty fashion story for the September 2024 issue of Perfect Magazine [IG]. With Edward Enninful no longer at British Vogue, Anne has had significant concerns about exactly what happens to fashion stories of this caliber and excellence. More than once in recent years, AOC has said that only brands can afford to underwrite these editorials.
In the case of these exquisite images for Perfect, we can thank Prada, described as ‘Red-Hot’ on the cover in the story styled by George Krakowiak. / Hair by Ali Pirzadeh; makeup by Chiao Li Hsu

Our Deep Sadness for Morocco and Libya
AOC likes the fact that Tyler uses the words “Communion in an everlasting landscape” to describe the W fashion shoot. Except “everlasting” seems like an increasingly fragile word today.
Because Tyler set the mood, let us take a moment to consider the confirmed dead in Libya of 5,000 and heading as high as 10,000 in the devastating surge of floodwaters.
And also the growing death toll in our beloved Marrakech — a magical place that means so much to so many of us creatives. The current death toll is at 3,000 and climbing from the earthquake.
AOC shares Vogue Arabia ‘How to Help Morocco’ links. We are working on Arab-world recommended links for Libya. ~ Anne
