karliekloss: celebrating the incredible work of the @15percentpledge 🖤 thank you @aurorajames for your leadership. I am deeply inspired by the tremendous impact of the #fifteenpercentpledge, driving over $10B in revenue to Black-owned businesses over the past 3 years….this is only the beginning.

👏🏿🖤🔥🎨#ArtIsAWeapon 💫#artist @jordanmcasteel's captivating #portrait of #designer @aurorajames wearing @pyermoss for the cover of @voguemagazine's special September 2020 issue 💫#Hope #YallGonnaGetThisBlackExcellence Reposted from @voguemagazine For our September issue, #KerryJamesMarshall and Jordan Casteel (@jordanmcasteel) were given complete freedom to decide who would be on their covers, a real or imaginary person, and how that person would be portrayed. For her Vogue cover, above, Casteel chose a real person as her subject, fashion designer Aurora James (@aurorajames), who made headlines in June with her @15percentpledge, a campaign to support Black-owned businesses. “I believe that what Aurora is doing is hugely important in creating the long-term change that Black people deserve and this country owes us,” Casteel says. “I see her as a light in a lot of darkness, and a potential for hope, a representative of change across all creative industries. What’s most exciting to me is being given artistic integrity and being able to choose the person to be my sitter—someone who reflects a portion of my own identity—and then to do that truly in the medium of my choice. This is the way that I speak to the world. And this is the way I’ve been speaking to the world and talking about the humanity of our people, talking about humanity in general. It’s a really profound experience. I do think I’m participating and a change is happening.” Tap the link in our bio to read more about the making of our September covers, which are part of our global reflection on #VogueHope.
