Is the February British Vogue cover the best way to showcase Black beauty? CNN's StephanieBusari argues it might've been better to let each model's natural, unique beauty shine through.
In an article published on the Vogue website, Enninful describes the models as"a powerful cohort of reigning and emerging superstars who have not only come to rule catwalks and dominate campaigns but have shifted the lens through which fashion is seen the world over."
A cover is the highest accolade a magazine can give to a subject, and, historically, Black women have rarely been bestowed this honor.interview in the GuardianSo, when Black women appear on the cover of global high-profile magazines like Vogue, these images circulate widely; we feel seen, celebrated, and acknowledged. That is why for many Black women, particularly dark-skinned ones like me, this Vogue cover feels personal.
"Why darken their skin beyond recognition?" she asked."To make some statement about being unapologetically black? Unapologetically black means being who you are and does not require this manner of hyperbole.""But my personal complaint is that publications and brands are constantly communicating that the deepest darkest hue in complexion represents the truest essence of Blackness or even Africanness. This is clearly a mark of the white gaze.
"This image is pure manipulation," he told me during phone conversation."This is what they do to South Sudanese models to tell a story about Africa and people are saying we don't understand the artist's perspective but you can tell a story and be projecting a false narrative."It is undeniable that Enninful and his team have made excellent strides in championing diversity since he replaced Shulman as editor-in-chief of British Vogue.
