They Invented the Supermodel These Ten Black Women should all be Household Names.
(The Cut/ Photo by Rahim Fortune and Styling by Jessica Willis ) August 31, 2021 The only way to start this story — any story, really, about the American Supermodel — is with the Battle of Versailles. The one in 1973. On one side were the French, of course: designers Hubert de Givenchy, Yves Saint Laurent, Pierre Cardin, Emanuel Ungaro, and Marc Bohan for Christian Dior. The other, American: Stephen Burrows, Oscar de la Renta, Bill Blass, Halston, Anne Klein. Each country’s fashion royalty at the time. In theory, it was all for charity, to raise funds to restore the crumbling Versailles Palace.

In spring, Siara Fuller, the artistic director of Charlotte Performing Arts Academy in North Carolina, brought a group of students to a dance competition in Fort Mill, S.C. It was, in many ways, an ordinary weekend within the extraordinary world of competitive dance: Hundreds of young dancers assembled at a convention center, donned glittery costumes and giant false lashes, and presented spit-polished routines for a panel of judges. (Because of Covid-19, the dancers accessorized with face masks.) Read More

"Black people activate fashion in a particular way,” my friend AJ (the artist Arthur Jafa) said with casual certainty a couple decades ago. We were poring over clippings of Black images he had surgically extracted from glossy Eurocentric fashion magazines. Now sleeved in big black binders and emancipated from their privileged published pages, they could be seen by us more honestly. Like generals in a war room, we studied the images’ relationship to one another and to us. It was an advanced exercise to train our eyes and sharpen our sensibilities, to decentralize whiteness and recentralize Blackness even in the whitest and most exclusionary of space — something Jafa elevated into an art form and for me was to become daily practice."

Although shown June 6, 2021, we felt still noteworthy now! As noted from Michelle San Andres of The Daily Californian, about the look alike Gucci Bags,
"The tote is one of many Gucci clones, a response to Gucci’s initial Balenciaga “hacking” in its 100th anniversary collection. Among these, Gucci’s Jackie silhouette is redone with Balenciaga branding and the Instagram-famous monogram belt reinterpreted with a ”BB” buckle. It’s no surprise that these “Bucci” bags made this spring 2022 collection so highly anticipated.

WWD September 25, 2021 New York's hometown ballet company made an emotional return to the stage this week, bringing a sense of normalcy to theater-lovers and performers alike.
It was like a capsule of time, a scene from another era, had come back to meet us on the other side.
Entering Lincoln Center’s limestone halls again was a New York mix of young and old — seasoned opera buffs and young women ironically wearing elbow-length opera gloves, men in baseball caps and women whose heels immediately sent them to their seats. Read More
