Cass Bird's Studio Images with Rianne Van Rompaey for Harper's Bazaar US May 2021

Top model Rianne Van Rompaey is styled by Samira Nasr in a crisp, modern fashion statement lensed by Cass Bird for Harper’s Bazaar US May 2021.

Rianne shared her thoughts on beauty with Jenna Rosenstein, and the top model had quite a lot to say. Speaking about growing up in the Netherlands, the model stressed that people are reserved, and it’s better to fit in.

Being online a lot as a teenager gave Van Rompaey a different view of pop culture — and especially in America.

I think it’s so beautiful how different everybody looks. I wish people could celebrate that.

I thought, “Wow, there are actually people out there who are completely, unapologetically themselves and are not trying to fit in.” I think that’s true of American pop culture: You’re allowed to be seen, and you’re allowed to be loud. To me, that was very liberating because I am quite loud.

Vulnerability attracts her, especially among women. To the model, it makes women beautiful. Every kind of emotion attracts Rianne — even anger — as long as the expression is authentic.

We have a proper fashion story out of the May 2021 American Vogue. It’s been so long that I was just jolted and stopped dead in my tracks with this discovery. Black beauty abounds with Amanda Gorman on the cover and top-tier models Adut Akech and Imaan Hammam featured here.

Ashley Graham Talks Her Rules, Her Game for WSJ Magazine February 2021 by Ethan James Green

Ashley Graham Talks Her Rules, Her Game for WSJ Magazine February 2021 by Ethan James Green

Top model and the biggest broadcaster of body loving, self-confidence known to women, Ashley Graham is styled by Dara Allen in Balenciaga, Dolce & Gabbana, Fendi, Louis Vuitton, Michael Kors Collection, Prada, Ralph Lauren, Saint Laurent and more. Ethan James Green photographs Graham for the February 2021 issue of WSJ Magazine.

Marisa Meltzer interviews Graham, who gets straight to the point of why women like her.

“My brand is about confidence and owning who you are and being honest with who you are,” she says. “I think that’s incredibly reflective of my Instagram, my YouTube, my podcast. I just wish that I had someone that was as real and honest and open when I was in middle school, high school, moving to New York.”

This is the theme that Ashley Graham asserts over and over about herself — and the heavy lift she’s taken on with women at large. Graham wants women to feel the love in a world that makes it pretty damn difficult for females generally to feel worthy most of the time. Women of color pull an extra-heavy load, and so do women whose size is larger than those featured on fashion runways.
