Supermodel Kendall Jenner mannequins [yes, AOC is making it a verb] the April 2023 cover story of Vogue Italia. Kate Phelan styles Jenner in Burberry, Chloe,Dior, Fendi, Hermes, JW Anderson, Loewe, Max Mara, Prada and more for images by Robin Galiegue [IG].
In her own words, Jenner’s main focus is her mental health and not posing in a fashion magazine. "The beginning of the year was emotionally difficult." Kendall Jenner, 27 years old in November, tells Vogue Italia. It’s not clear whether she means 2022 or 2023. I’m assuming 2022.
“To come out and feel optimistic is reassuring. Everything is temporary, I feel intensely grateful and happy, ready for what's to come,” Kendall says, explaining that she is practicing "hope for something until it comes true, using the law of attraction.”
In this episode — posted a year ago and not part of the Vogue italia interview but Kendall’s mental health is all about the interview —Kendall sits down with Dr. Jorge Partida, Chief of Psychology at the Los Angeles County Department of Mental Health, to discuss social media addiction, our human need to feel connected, and how both of those things can contribute to feelings of anxiety.

What a gift Vogue Arabia has given to the world — this exquisitely beautiful fashion story in the March 2023 issue. My senses are in total overload and my heart is filled with gratitude to all the creative talent and energy assembled here.
The art collage of model Abuk Adier with Art Factory Studio [their website] posing with paintings by Rashid Al Khalifa [link] raises my pulse with expectations. The artist is interviewed on Vogue Arabia. Currently, he is the chairman of the National Council of the Arts and is honorary chairman of the Bahrain Arts Society.
This is just such a gorgeous gift to the world, and I love how Vogue Arabia weaves art into the fashion narrative. We’re seeing more of that at Global Vogue as well. But Vogue Arabia has a fantastic mission of educating readers about their world, and I appreciate the strategy tremendously. These images are burned into my brain, they are so intoxicating. ~ Anne

Lynette Nylandersits down with Schafer in New York, six years after their first interview. At the time, the journalist was writing about new changemakers. Hunter Schafer, then age 18, was an emerging voice in the fight for trans rights. I learned that she was an early contributor to Tavi Gevinson’s blogging site ‘Rookie’.
Because AOC is politically-involved, we actually followed and wrote about her trans fight to transition in North Carolina — before we wrote about her as a model and then actor.
‘It was my [modelling] agency that told me about the audition for Euphoria,’ she says [to ELLE]. ‘I think every trans girl at the time got the call. They asked me to come in for a reading, but I wasn’t looking for it.’
