/
You probably know that Amber Valletta was committed to true sustainability long before it was fashionable. And you might know that activist actor Jane Fonda is also a true eco-warrior on the record for about four years, saying she tries hard not to buy anything new — and especially fashion.

Read MoreGuerlain #WomenforBees Project Led by Angelina Jolie in Yucatan for 2023
/
The partnership between Guerlain and UNESCO launched in early 2020, with the training of beekeepers with more than 50 hives based in Ethiopia, Rwanda, Cambodia and China. The five-year project has a goal of training 88 beekeepers from 44 biospheres maintaining 4.400 beehives, after which the partnership can be renewed.
In 2023, the program expanded to the Yucatan Peninsula in Mexico, in collaboration with the Fundación Selva Maya and Maroma, a Belmond Hotel.
To learn that the new LVMH Belmond Maroma Resort and Spa, re-opening August 3, 2023 is also a co-sponsor of the #WomenforBees project, gives Maroma a sense of purpose that has deep roots in ancient practices and traditions.
Reading Maroma’s IG description of its “place” is quite breathtaking and a tribute to LVMH’s approach to 21st century values in creating brand identity with real integrity and an embrace of ancient wisdom.
Maroma is a space of enchanting natural refinement, where ancient mysteries meet modern revelations. Our hotel is based on higher design—infinite and larger than the place itself. It was created originally by true believers of the Sacred Geometry, who aligned our white stucco buildings with the surrounding energy fields.
Understanding the respect that LVMH is giving to ancient wisdom and practices — writing about sacred geometry and the energy fields involved with the design of Maroma — had great impact on me, and I continue to process the many ways that LVMH is touching our lives in the world of luxury.

Jamilla Hoogenboom in 'Rock In The Casbah' by Adriano Russo for ELLE Italia
/
Dutch model Jamilla Hoogenboom invites us into the Médina de Marrakech for ‘Rock In The Casbah’, a fashion story set in Morocco.
The Medina, Marrakech’s old city, founded in 1070–72 by the Almoravids, was known as the center of the Muslim world. It’s a labyrinth of winding alleys and colorful souks which are bustling and vibrant by day.
Much of the old city Medina is shuttered in darkness at night with no signs to guide strangers. My partner and I learned this fact first hand, when we walked the same streets now dark, in what became a spectacular night in our lives.
