Sadhbh and Cadhla O'Reilly in Menswear Suitings by Luca Bellumore in Amica Magazine

Irish twins models Sadhbh and Cadhla O’Reilly are styled by Michela Buratti in the season’s menswear suitings from top luxury brands. Checks, houndstooth, and geometric patterns make a big impression in the often sedate world of men’s suitings.

Most important — yes, the twins did walk the Gucci show in Milan this week, one of 68 sets of twins - turned out by Alessandro Michele. The designer himself is the child of an identical twin. Mum Eralda and Mum Giuliana “shared a genetic solidarity but, above all, they shared an intimacy which was inaccessible to others,” the maverick human, who continues to inspire, wrote in his show notes.

Hana Jirickova In 'J'aime la Plage' by Arran + Jules for Vogue Netherlands October 2022

Hana Jirickova In 'J'aime la Plage' by Arran + Jules for Vogue Netherlands October 2022

Top model Hana Jirickova wears her healthy sensuality in the October 2022 issue of Vogue Netherlands in a fashion story ‘J’aime la Plage’. Marian Nachmia styles Jirickova in images by Arran & Jules [IG] that remind us of the deceased Vogue Paris, now Vogue France.

With a right-wing battle for women’s bodies gaining steam across the world — not only America — it’s no time for fashion to go Miss Modesty, as Vogue France has done. Didn’t they tell us a few months ago that feminism is so over as an issue?

Given a right-wing win in Italy on Sunday — the first since Mussolini and a couple weeks ago also in Sweden, and with America’s midterms a tossup in our post-Roe world — “controlling women’s bodies” is a high-priority in Europe and America.

Asked by Jenny Comita about her earliest reflections on her supermodel status, Harlow responds that she and Amber Valletta were originally called the ‘anti-supermodels.”

“We were the antidote to the traditional supermodels, because we represented a different aesthetic and we were confronting what the beauty norms were at that point: the Richard Avedon super-goddess glamazons.”

Ana de Armas in Exquisite Images by Craig McDean for AnOther Magazine FW 2022

Ana de Armas in Exquisite Images by Craig McDean for AnOther Magazine FW 2022

British photographer, New York-based Craig McDean [IG] has outdone himself with new images of actor Ana de Armas for AnOther Magazine [IG]. Katie Shillingford styled de Armas in Louis Vuitton for the cover and inside fashion story, adding sensual but casual luxury looks inside.

In an interview with Hannah Lack, How Ana de Armas Became the Most Famous Woman in the World, de Armas discusses playing Marilyn Monroe in Andrew Dominik’s much anticipated adaptation of Joyce Carol Oates’s ‘Blonde’, arriving on Netflix Sept. 28.

The Jezebel review is more vulgar and ‘flip’ than most, but its train of thought is consistent with several others that I just read. I’ll go with the New Yorker review [next paragraph] , because it runs closest to Lack’s interview, which is well worth the read.
