Liya Kebede Goes Rockaway by Mikael Jansson for Vogue Japan April 2013 As 'The Vanishing Underground'
/
Model Liya Kebede is captured by Mikael Jansson in super sophisticated images that contrast scene of hip elegance with the lives of ordinary New Yorkers living in Queens. This “of the people” editorial has undertones familiar to AOC. We note an emerging political undertone - and sexual identity, too — in Mikael Jansson’s editorials that is frank and fresh. George Cortina styles Liya in Afro-centric elegance for the March 2013 issue of Vogue Japan as ‘The Vanishing Underground’.
