Lara Mullen Poses for Txema Yeste in 'La Pionniere' for Numero December 2021

Model Lara Mullen poses for photographer Txema Yeste [IG] in ‘La Pionnière’, perhaps an unintended commentary on the fight for women’s rights for the last 13,000 years. AOC tries not to assume artistic motive and message.

Upon further reflection, Mullen may be channeling Furiosa in the Mad Max spinoff. Or Joan of Arc. Whatever the inspo, AOC loves the fashion story— especially arrows in Mullen’s gut. A full-frontal attack.

Art affects each of us differently; and the sad part of this fashion story for AOC is that American women are going backwards. And ‘yes’, that makes young women joining the fight ‘pioneers’ in what is a sad state of global affairs, frankly.

Bernat Buscato styles Mullen for Numero France’s [IG] December 2021/January 2022 issue

Josephine Skriver Covers ELLE Denmark, Lensed by Frederik Lentz Andersen

Josephine Skriver Covers ELLE Denmark, Lensed by Frederik Lentz Andersen AOC Fashion

Josephine Skriver covers the December 2021 issue of ELLE Denmark, styled by Agnes Buch. Frederik Lentz Andersen [IG] photographs Skriver, who lives in LA with partner Alexander DeLeon of The Cab, now releasing solo music as Bohnes. The couple has sold their Nashville home, not making LA their crash pad place, as originally rumoured.

As we speak, Josephine Skriver has teamed up with Los Angeles-based Triarchy to unveil a collaborative capsule of sustainable denim styles.

“Collaborating with Josephine on this collection was not only a dream because her aesthetic is a perfect compliment to Triarchy’s, but also because she was genuinely interested in the fabrics we developed for this collaboration. The sustainability was just as important as the style for Josephine, and that’s why this collection works so well,” Adam Taubenfligel, the brand’s creative director and co-founder, told WWD.

Triarchy designed its own “proprietary sustainable denim fabrication from a blend of Naia Renew,” which is created by using 66 percent organic cotton, 22 percent Tencel and 12 percent Naia fiber. The capsule incorporates sustainable wash practices and a second sustainable denim fabrication consisting of a whopping 83 percent recycled content.

You can find the eight-piece collection in styles ranging from $165 to $495 on the brand’s e-commerce site. The Triarchy x Josephine Skriver launch with Bergdorf Goodman in December, as well as with Neiman Marcus, Nordstrom, Shopbop and Holt Renfrew.
