Pyer Moss by Kerby Jean-Raymond Covers Blanc Magazine Winter 2020

Pyer Moss was founded in 2013 by Haitian-American, New York-born fashion designer Kerby Jean-Raymond, who describes his brand as an “art project” or “a timely social experiment” at times. Pyer Moss aims to use its voice and platform to challenge social narratives and evoke dialogue. The Pyer Moss collections are produced in New York City, Italy and Portugal.

In September 2018, Pyer Moss invited Fashion Week to Weeksville, the historic black neighborhood in Brooklyn, Pyer Moss showed the second installment of the designer’s “American, Also” series, a three-part series of collections addressing the erasure of African American narratives in popular culture to critical acclaim. Vogue called the show “the best of the season”.

In mid-2019 Jean-Raymond became a “thought partner” as artistic director of Reebok Studies.

The Belle Époque period (or Beautiful Age in English) is a name given in France to the period from roughly the end of the Franco-Prussian War (1871) to the start of World War I (1914). Take a quick look at 10 fascinating facts about the Belle Époque.

J Lo + Kendall Jenner In Electrifying Versace 2020 Campaign by Mert + Marcus

J Lo + Kendall Jenner In Electrifying Versace 2020 Campaign by Mert + Marcus

The Versace Spring 2020 Campaign is the first jolt of original Versace that we’ve seen is a VERY long time. We chucked, thinking “yeah, Michael Kors does Versace” — the original inventor of female superheroes. There are VERY few men in fashion who truly love powerful, ambitious women. Versace is one and Tom Ford is another. After that, we must think.

Celebrity songstress Jennifer Lopez closed the Versace Spring 2020 show, wearing a variation of the designer’s daring, iconic green jungle print dress. It’s surely one of the most photographed dresses of all time.

Jane Fonda -- Our Fav 'Outlaw' -- Talks Climate Activism With Who What Wear

Wow! We’re in ecstasy with this Jane Fonda editorial lensed by Tiffany Nicholson for Who What Wear. Tracy Taylor styles Fonda in Gabriela Hearst, Warren, Frame Le Plazzo Jeans, Lingua Franca ‘Outlaw’ cashmere sweater — PERFECT for Fonda — and more.

Jane celebrated her 82nd birthday in handcuffs, arrested for a fifth time at a climate change protest in Washington, DC. Jane makes it clear in her interview that clothes do not inspire her. And yes, Tracy Taylor whipped up largely sustainable pieces for the Tiffany Nicholson photo shoot. Jane is on the record saying that her red protest coat —not the Nancy Pelosi red Max Mara coat — is the last item of clothing that she will ever buy.

In advance of her highly anticipated album ‘Rare’ which drops Friday, Selena Gomez expresses a mature clarity about her mental health journey.

“I had low self-esteem, and that’s something I work on continuously. But I feel so empowered because I’ve gained so much knowledge about what was going on mentally,” says Gomez. “My highs were really high, and my lows would take me out for weeks at a time.”

Kaia Gerber for Loewe in Paris Peace Garden by Fumiko Imano

Kaia Gerber for Loewe in Paris Peace Garden by Fumiko Imano

Rising star Kaia Gerber graces the spring summer 2020 issue of Loewe Publication, styled by Benjamin Bruno in Jonathan Anderson’s designs for Loewe. Japanese photographer Fumiko Imano captures Kaia on location at the famous Noguchi-designed Peace Garden at Maison de l’Unesco in Paris.

The photographer herself is inserted into the imagery, along with her imaginary twin. “Noguchi’s garden doubles up as a kabuki stage theatre,” says the Spanish house in a statement about the publication, referencing the storied Japanese dance and theatre tradition. In this setting, Gerber is the ‘naïf’, while Imano and her fictional twin portray aragoto villains, with requisite striking make-up by Pat McGrath. The calming Peace Garden offers a moment of escapism in the heart of the French capital, and is the ideal setting for Imano’s homage to kabuki: “with its day-long programmes and elaborate costumes, kabuki is intended as an escape from the everyday world too,” explains Loewe.
