Anne of Carversville is comfortable diving into the loss of power and influence for women, with the rise of Christian monotheism and the obliteration of the history of goddess worship from earlier Sumerian culture, as well as later Greek and Roman cultures.
We are more reticient to write about pre-Islamic cultures in Arabia or to navigate the identity dynamics between Egyptians and Arabs in any discussion of goddesses. Today we share the names and brief history of three Arab goddesses: Al-Lat, Al-Uzza and Manat.

If 21st century culture and spirituality had goddesses, Kim Kardashian could easily be she who presided over social media, reality television, fashion and entrepreneurship. These thoughts open her interview with Carine Roitfeld in a CR Fashion Book Issue 23, with 10 more muses besides Kardashian to follow.
With this new CR Fashion Book 23, Kardashian takes her fourth cover — and what an amazing fashion story this is. Ben Perreira works with Carine on styling, choosing DSQUARED, Jacquemus, Marc Jacobs, Miu Miu, Prada, Nensi Dojaka, and more. Photographer Nadia Lee Cohen [IG] is in the studio, capturing Kim Kardashian in a total transformation of the woman we know.
Kardashian refers to her own soul multiple times in the interview, which fascinates Anne. After the two mega voices in fashion talk about much needed needed reforms in America’s criminal justice system, Roitfeld asks Kardashian: “When do you feel most free?”
KK answers:
When I make business choices that are from the soul and not a quick, easy decision. I’d rather take the longer route and go with the journey than an easy choice that seems expected.

The Dazed Magazine [IG] Autumn 2023 issue fashion story is lensed by Yis Kid [IG].
This ‘daring’ fashion story featuring model Madison Headrick is presumably heavily-funded by Tiffany, and absolutely approved by them. They have worked together previously, but this collaboration devoted to the Tiffany Lock and Tiffany Knot collections is pure brilliance. Anne will explain.
The arrival of Hector Muelas at Tiffany & Co this week, and now this very racy, divinely-sensual Madison Headrick fashion story lensed by David Roemer [IG] reaffirms my understanding of a top-level LVMH strategy in marketing to a progressive, younger, monied clientele.
My point in is not to compare Headrick Nahmad to Richie Grainge. Both young women are successful on their own.
