Vogue Portugal April 2022 Speaks to Our Shared Humanity in Lufre's Cover Story AOC Fashion

Brazilian photographer Lufre [IG] shoots Vogue Portugal’s April 2022 cover story ‘Same, same, but different’, styled by Alexandre Dornellas. The model cast includes Alamada Bidiande e Guive, Beatriz Cortes, Camila Simões, Gabriel Neres, Lara Bawar e Mara Bawar, Luana Vintrin, Oda, Sara Rismo, Tau and Raiza Bernardo wear Burberry, Chanel, Hermes, Moncler, The Attico, Valentino and more.

Coincidentally, the yellow and aqua blue colors of the cover are the colors of Ukraine, and the magazine stresses this connection. The human suffering we are witnessing in Putin’s goal to level Ukraine and destroy everything in sight — its people, its babies, its economy, its heritage — takes us deep into the terrifying, deadly and destructive themes of humanity.

It’s the role of the warrior goddesses to stand against this global destructive impulse. Whether the impulse is more male than female is not subject to debate in my world. The global institutions — and especially religious institutions — do not agree with me.

In fact, the alleged irrational, hysterical, women running wild without male supervision and wisdom is the most universal theme of modern civilization.
