Zhang’s appointment to the prestigious position of editor-in-chief in February 2021 redefined the career skills propelling a professional talent into such a prestigious position. Not only was Zhang the youngest Vogue editor ever at just 27, she was the first influencer — and one with little magazine experience — to be named a top editor at any Vogue edition.

Lila Moss As Magical Harlequin Lensed by Elizaveta Porodina for Vogue Spain

Lila Moss As Magical Harlequin Lensed by Elizaveta Porodina for Vogue Spain

Fresh off being named a USA ambassador for Yves Saint Laurent Beauty last week, Lila Moss covers the March 2024 issue of Vogue Espana [IG], wearing Mugler.

In her own words, Lila credits “the wonderful mind” of photographer Elizaveta Porodina [IG] for transforming her into “a magical harlequin” for the Vogue Spain cover story.

Lila Moss Now Lives in New York

Lila reflects on her fashion model life, explaining “This profession is about telling a story with clothes and making them come to life. That's why I think it's important to understand the creative side and not get too caught up in looks and how you're perceived."

Moss lives now in New York, navigating a degree of physical independence and personal agency from her famous supermodel mother Kate Moss. The two have an unusually close relationship, and Lila is hardly at a loss, looking for connections and friendships in New York.

Nevertheless, the bird has flown the nest, so to speak, and she speaks more on this topic in her Vogue Spain interview.

Tory Burch SS2024 Campaign Starts a Ruckus in Marfa, Texas with Grace, Ida and Selena

Tory Burch SS2024 Campaign Starts a Ruckus in Marfa, Texas with Grace, Ida and Selena

Tory Burch [IG] strikes up the band, taking her Spring-Summer 2024 Campaign to Marfa, Texas, a small desert town in west Texas. population 1,748. Marfa has a very big reach both east and west as an arts center. Those damn liberals keep showing up in Marfa, trying to wreck the whole state of Texas, from the point of view of Governor Greg Abbott.

In fact, the arrival of this great campaign starring Grace Elizabeth, Ida Heiner and Selena Forrest is deeply political — perfectly timed as a clapback to the freakin’ absurd MAGA meltdown over Taylor Swift this week.

Only Taylor Swift appearing on horseback, disguised as a member of the Texas Rangers, but then jumping off her stallion and into the street guns blazing [in the air] to save Grace, Ida and Selena from an impending arrest would make this advert any better. What is their crime? Disturbing the peace.

Photographer Jamie Hawkesworth [IG] would be stupified over the entire scene but covering all the action from every angle. Meanwhile Brian Molloy does an excellent job styling this production, with hair by Jimmy Paul and makeup by Dick Page.

Les Gastons Vuitton Fine Jewelry by Francesca Amfitheatrof Is Not Only for Men

Les Gastons Vuitton Fine Jewelry by Francesca Amfitheatrof Is Not Only for Men

“Men used to wear a lot of jewellery, and it’s now finally turning around,” Francesca Amfitheatrof, Artistic Director for Watches and Jewellery at Louis Vuitton, tells Vogue Business. “Men are much more adventurous and interested in jewellery.”

The men’s fine jewelry market remains a fraction of the women’s business, boasting revenues of about $7.3 billion in 2023 compared to an estimated $44 billion, according to Euromonitor. Its annual growth rate is 7.3 percent, however, compared to 7.3 percent for women.

The acquisition of Tiffany & Co by LVMH in 2020 and the arrival of jewelry-loving Pharrell Williams as the new creative director of Louis Vuitton Men in 2023 created a major appetite for the spectacular entrance of Louis Vuitton into Fine Jewelry for women, followed now by the introduction of a Louis Vuitton men’s [or unisex] 18 piece fine jewelry collection called ‘Les Gastons Vuitton’.

Bella Hadid by Bryce Anderson Takes 4 Covers in The Perfect Magazine #6 SS-2024

Bella Hadid by Bryce Anderson Takes 4 Covers in The Perfect Magazine #6 SS-2024

Supermodel Bella Hadid returns to the limelight with these four covers for The Perfect Magazine [IG] Issue Six Spring/Summer 2024.

The shoot is inspired by an image of Debbie Harry performing in 1978, wearing as a dress a poster she had torn from the wall outside the venue.

Bella is wearing a Corbin Shaw tee ‘Screaming in Perfect English’ [above] on the fourth cover — and Corbin is a major source of inspo for the covers.

Anne began her day reflecting on the raw power of Charlamagne Tha God’s views on sitting out the upcoming 2024 presidential election. Michigan Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib has called on all Muslim voters to not support US President Biden — to teach us all about ‘raw power’.

In this midst of the American political crisis, is the phrase ‘Raw Fashion Power’ to describe Bella. Is this a stupid comment, or is Bella taking a political side?
