Winnie Harlow for Women's Abortion Rights in Gucci Uterus Dress for Vogue Greece

Winnie Harlow Channels Her Greek Goddess Heritage Wearing Gucci Cruise

Winnie Harlow covers the February 2020 issue of Vogue Greece in Greek-goddess fashion inspiration from Gucci Cruise 2020 collection. Vasilis Kekatos captures Winnie with styling by Nicholas Georgiou.

Gucci’s Cruise Collection 2020 debuted in Rome at the Capitolini Museums, not far away from the Vatican. Gucci creative director Alessandro Michele says he was inspired by the '70s culture  from which the movement for reproductive rights emerged.

The words ‘Brave New World’ comes from a dystopian novel by English author Aldous Huxley, published in a futuristic world state. The novel imagines a futuristic world inhabited by genetically-modified citizens and an intelligence-based social hierarchy. The novel envisions major advancements in reproductive technology, psychological manipulation and classical conditioning that allow a single people to have massive impact on large populations of people.

“It was a historical moment when women — finally — rejected all the constraints that were imposed in the previous centuries and they became free,” Michele explained. Winnie wears the “My Body, My Choice” uterus dress on the Vogue Greece cover

AOC notes, realistically, that men in particular have fought worldwide — with plenty of support from conservative women — to deny women the right to control our bodies, In fact, under the Trump Administration, women’s rights to control our reproductive health is under a total assault.

J Lo + Kendall Jenner In Electrifying Versace 2020 Campaign by Mert + Marcus

The Versace Spring 2020 Campaign is the first jolt of original Versace that we’ve seen is a VERY long time. We chucked, thinking “yeah, Michael Kors does Versace” — the original inventor of female superheroes. There are VERY few men in fashion who truly love powerful, ambitious women. Versace is one and Tom Ford is another. After that, we must think.

Celebrity songstress Jennifer Lopez closed the Versace Spring 2020 show, wearing a variation of the designer’s daring, iconic green jungle print dress. It’s surely one of the most photographed dresses of all time.

British Vogue 'Waste Not' Fran Summers, Vittoria Ceretti by Craig McDean Is Sustainability Serious

British Vogue 'Waste Not' Fran Summers, Vittoria Ceretti by Craig McDean Is Sustainability Serious

British Vogue launches a new, more ‘WOKE’ mindset with ‘How Fashion Is Finally Working To Tackle Climate Change’, written by Tamsin Blanchard.

Contributing fashion director Kate Phelan styles Vittoria Ceretti and Fran Summers with the same approach used in her Taylor Swift editorial. This transition approach — at odds with Fashion Extinction’s bold statement of ‘buy nothing’ — begins a closet update re-education process that European women have understood for decades.

Craig McDean captures Fran and Vittoria in Kate Phelan’s old and new ‘Waste Not’ editorial, launching a new decade of thinking that demands reforms in consumption patterns.

AOC is trying to do our part, with an ongoing focus on Sustainability and Environment — and a preference for using our precious time to write features based on new principles.

To that end, we’re pulling together years of writing on sustainability into a set of archives similar to our Models, Photographers and Women’s News Archives — all featured in the footer of this website and on this link. .

Taylor Swift Launches British Vogue 's 2020s Decade in Archive Chanel

Superstar Taylor Swift welcomes a new decade, wearing archive Chanel tweed for the January 2020 cover of British Vogue, lensed by Craig McDean. The jacket from Chanel’s Métiers d’art Paris-New York 2005/2006 collection expresses a keen desire from editor-in-chief Edward Enninful put sustainability front and center in fashion dialogue. Simply stated, we cannot add another decade of limitless, shop-until-you-drop consumption on Mother Earth’s wounded self.

Taylor Swift is fresh off winning six awards at last Sunday’s AMAs, bringing her total to 29. Swift won both artist of the year and artist of the decade.

“Buying better and buying less is what I believe in: investing in clothes that will last a lifetime, pieces that can be passed down from generation to generation. Fashion shouldn’t feel disposable: the best clothes can be worn time and time again and have the quality of both design and craftsmanship to ensure their staying power – that’s how I’ve always dressed, it’s just that, because I only wear black, you can never tell. In that spirit, it was important to me to choose a classic item for Taylor, one that is everlasting – and that’s why I used a Chanel jacket from the Métiers d’art 2005/2006 collection. It’s the ultimate sign of luxury, it has never gone out of fashion, and it never will.”

Taylor Swift is fresh off winning six awards at last Sunday’s AMAs, bringing her total to 29. Swift won both artist of the year and artist of the decade.

In her British Vogue interview, Taylor joins musical theater kindpin Andrew Lloyd Weber, to discuss their collaboration on the movie adaptation of ‘Cats’ Webber’s 1981 extravaganza that set records in London’s West End and also on Broadway, running for a combined shy of 40 years. The duo has created a new song ‘Beautiful Ghosts’, with lyrics written by Taylor the afternoon she first heard Webber’s “hauntingly beautiful melody”.

Returning to fashion and Swift’s Craig McDean photo shoot ‘Waste Not’, contributing fashion director Kate Phelan pairs vintage pieces dating back 35 years with looks from the autumn/winter 2019 and Resort 2020 collections and specially commissioned garments crafted from deadstock (merchandise never sold to or worn by consumers) . Katharine Hamnett’s much-publicised “Pershing” T-shirt is styled alongside inspiring pieces from Amsterdam-based designer Duran Lantink, who upcycles items from resale sites into new exquisite garments. “We are looking at the longevity of what designers make and sell,” Phelan explains of her process. “They don’t have to start from scratch every time they make a collection. I still have clothes from years ago that I mix in with more recent looks – an old Chanel jacket that can stand the test of time, say. Things you never get bored of.”
