Dutch models Alyssa Traoré and Jessie Bloemendaal are styled by Sam Ranger in a 1+1=3 editorial ‘Eu Eu Eu’. There is no doubt about the intent of the editorial, once a black model is holding a white mask and vice versa. Alyssa wears primarily white outfits and Jessie black. Perhaps this staging seems too literal to some folks, but given the simmering resentment among large numbers of America’s women of color towards ALL white women, it’s time to spring this Pandora out of her box and give it some daylight.
When people are cornered in all or nothing boxes, based on skin color, progress is tough. Note that neither Democratic primary presidential candidate Kamala Harris or barely-defeated Democratic Georgia governor candidate Stacey Abrams come from this school of thought, and both have massive support among educated white women, if not high-school educated, women don’t belong in politics because God said so Trump supporters.

Already a mother of Pedro, age 6, Wellsh is now pregnant with a girl and she dreams of returning to Brazil so that her children can learn the same traditions that have formed her essence. Amanda shares her deep respect for fellow Brazilian Gisele Bundchen. "I was inspired by her sincerity and her strength, but also by her commitment to the environment. Ecology is one of our priorities to save the planet and ensure a future for our children. I recycle, I consume organic and I am angry when I see so much plastic used for packaging. I often talk about it to my son. "
Amanda hates clichés: those of the perfect wife and mother in particular. The former student in architecture explains:

For Maison Margiela Artisanal’s haute couture Spring/Summer 2019 collection, John Galliano used a podcast to address decadence in art, film, literature — and life. Nowhere is that perceived decadence better expressed than in the insatiable thirst for technology, especially among Gen Z types.
‘’The overstimulation of computer-generated imagery alters reality and degenerates the truth. Chaotic and unsettling, it is a confusion of the senses rooted in an over-satiation that inevitably overspills’’, said the show notes. With that, Galliano presented his haute couture collection against an eye-popping graffitied backdrop that totally dominates the visual presentation of his collection.
The gender fluid bodies “replicated that visually chaotic mural as a print using any number of inventive treatments, from traditional hand-embroideries and feather fronds to state-of-the-art reflective fabrics,", writes Vogue’s Hamish Bowles., describing them as “often combined to create a shimmering effect as though you had looked too hard at the sun and then closed your eyes. With mirror underfoot to fracture and multiply the looks, the effect was even more discombobulating and powerful. “
Galliano confessed that he is “feeling so much energy in the world” and the result is a collection that reinvents the vision of haute couture in 2019.

Model stars Stella Maxwell and Jordan Barrett joined forces with photographer Sebastian Faena in The Daily’s third annual limited-edition art magazine launched in Miami at Art Basel. Perhaps inspired by other events in Trumplandia, the trio collaborated around the theme of Duduism, which Faena describes as “a form of artistic anarchy born out of disdain for the social, aesthetic, and cultural values of the time. It embraces elements of art, music, poetry, combat, and romance.”
Only two weeks earlier, Barrett’s supporters were pushing back against rumours that his hard-partying and ‘bad behaviour’ had hurt his career. Hey, AOC loves Sebastian Faena , so kudos to his artistic vision! Proceed with full knowledge that the trio torches the place. ~ Anne
