M Le magazine du Monde Luxury Issue Fall/Winter 2024 Lensed by Karim Sadli
/In their own words: “What is luxury?”
Every year at the same time, M Le magazine du Monde [IG] asks itself this question through a major fashion shoot. And every year, M's answer is the essentially the same: luxury is an attitude, made of glamour and nonchalance.
Photographer Karim Sadli [IG] shoots Awar Odhiang, Julia Nobis, Liu Wen, Lulu Tenney, Raquel Zimmermann and Selena Forrest in the streets of New York, styled by Alex Harrington with creative direction by Jean-Baptiste Talbourdet-Napoleone. / Makeup by Dick Page; hair by Jimmy Paul
Read MoreTory 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.

Read MoreGivenchy Spring 2023 Campaign Prompts a Fresh Look at Brand Strategy
/Reviews for this new Givenchy Spring 2023 campaign have been very positive. It would seem that holding the line and trying to make this vision of Givenchy work has merit.
In October, the New York Times explored the evolution [or confusion] around Williams’ vision for Givenchy.
Reminding readers that Givenchy has no core house identity, the sequence of designers at Givenchy has further created murky waters.
As for the talented American creative director Mr. Williams, does a former Kanye West acolyte, have a vision capable of translating Givenchy in modern terms — especially when none of us knows anymore, what Givenchy is about?
Because it’s game over if Mr. West, legally known as Ye, gets anywhere near an advisory role to Mr. Williams to help sort out his quandary.
From all I’ve read about him, Williams can’t possibly share West’s ‘I’ve never read a book, because I don’t need to’ attitude.
As The Atlantic explained this week: “Identifying as someone who categorically rejects books suggests a much larger deficiency of character.”
Read MoreTory Burch Holiday 2022 Campaign Blue Hues Prompts Reflections on Traditions
/While we associate the campaign’s silvery blue mood with the sea, let’s also remember that Hanukkah begins Sunday, December 18 this year and ends on December 26.
Whether she intended to make a subliminal statement or not in the Tory Burch Holiday 2022 Campaign, I appreciate blue in this moment. It’s refreshingly ecumenical, when brands are exploring exactly what traditions mean within the context of today’s world.
Hands down, Ralph Lauren has no peer in this realm of recasting the truth of the American experience. But Tory Burch is traveling on the same moonbeam — with an added emphasis on women’s lives and achievements. I love her for that long and sincere contribution to telling women’s stories.
Kanye West and his desire to rip America apart as a MAGA lover — and now Hitler, too — has gotten people up off the sidelines.
That would NOT be AOC, btw. We are never on the sidelines, when the focus is stopping hate.

Lonzi was an Italian art critic and feminist, best known as the cofounder of Rivolta Femminile, an Italian feminist collective formed in 1970.

Net-a-Porter and Gemfield's Support Space for Giants Elephants in Kenya
/Net-a-Porter and Gemfield's Gemstones Support Space for Giants Elephants in Kenya
Walk for Giants is a new campaign of the international conservation charity Space for Giants, made possible by Gemfields, a world-leading supplier of responsibly sourced coloured gemstones, and supported by NET-A-PORTER, the world’s leading online luxury fashion retailer.
Models Arizona Muse and Selena Forrest are photographed by Francesco Carrozzini, in both color images and black and whites on location at the Enasoit Game Sanctuary in Laikipia, Kenya.
In our COVID pandemic world, contributions to Space for Giants has suffered a serious blow. There is mixed messaging out there, but Net-a-Porter says that *100% of the profits from the sale of this product will go to Space for Giants (charity number 1159227).” I’m reading “proceeds”, which means revenue on some fashion websites. That information is incorrect.
