Models Paloma Elsesser, Jill Kortleve and Precious Lee are British Vogue’s April 2023 cover stars. EIC Edward Enninful makes the point in his editor’s letter that it’s very rare when three models come together in a special kind of energy.
Gabriella Karefa-Johnson styles the sensual fashion bonfire lensed by Inez van Lamsweerde & Vinoodh Matadin [IG].
Thirty years ago Christy Turlington, Naomi Campbell and Linda Evangelista were a trinity. Edward’s argument is that now Paloma, Jill and Precious share their stature.
With a shared mission born from friendship, and squarely plugged into the more revolutionary energy of the current zeitgeist, this month’s cover crowns the rise of three extraordinary models.
AOC is not prepared to comment on the observations of Edward, and other writers as well, about the recent autumn/winter 2023 fashion shows:
After returning from the recent autumn/winter 2023 fashion shows, and seeing countless catwalks where diversity of beauty, and of bodies, had taken several steps back, I couldn’t be happier to take this moment to celebrate this trio.
Writing for NET-A-PORTER’s July 11, 2021 online fashion story ‘Fearless’, Danielle Prescod says that the secret of the totally-fabulous Precious Lee is that she is breaking the mold by being unapologetically herself. Elissa Santisi styles the Georgia Peach [as Lee is called with affection by many of us] in images by Kennedi Carter [IG].
Fresh on the thrill of Gisele Bundchen’s Amazonian woman self gracing five — count them FIVE — blazingly sexy covers of V Magazine 136, Jimmy Choo rolls into our disbelieving eyes one day later with Barbara Palvin and Precious Lee saying “Yes, we are sexy, fully-formed Jimmy Choo Summer 2022 goddesses posing poolside in our totally gorgeous, absolutely-loved bodies. Deal with it.”

Gigi Hadid understands hotel life, and she’s on a roll at H&M’s Hotel Hennes, with its over-the-top cast of characters and madcap adventures.

Steven Meisel on photography, Fabien Baron on art direction and Karl Templer as stylist are in the house for the new Zara Studio [IG] campaign — a creative effort that sings like an opera star. It’s not often that we just look at images and in 5 seconds know the photographer behind them.
Add 10 models who aren’t wooden mannequins, and Zara Studio has — not a remarkable campaign in a fashion history sense — but a unique, superbly-executed campaign that knocks on the doors of women’s psyches with joy, inner convictions and backbone. it makes AOC want a campaign or fashion story with women all around the world roaring in unison.
We love it, and AOC tends to reject campaigns and fashion stories that are formulaic. So Zara, Meisel, Baron and Templer took 10 unique faces: Amar Akway, Chiharu Okunugi, Kirsten Owen, Marisa Berenson, Meadow Walker, Precious Lee, Raquel Zimmermann, Rianne van Rompaey, Sasha Pivovarova and Yumi Nu and mixed a grade AAAAA studio campaign. That IS NOT an easy feat. ~ Anne
