Black women share personal stories about hair as part of Elle.com’s ‘State of Black Beauty’
As part of Elle.com’s inaugural “State of Black Beauty” package created by Chloe Hall, Angel Lenise and Nerisha Penrose, which debuted on the site on Thursday, a group of 20 Black women shared their personal hair stories and allowed the publication to record them in their own voices (which were then et to accompanying illustrations by Joelle Avelino).

The stories are reflective of “the first moment of isolation and feeling of other from those who don’t understand the history, the richness and the texture of Black hair and the stories it tells,” and each one is unique, yet emblematic of a certain shared experience for the women.

‘Vogue’ features people who work behind-the-scenes in fashion


Vogue photographed and profiled 67 people who “make fashion happen,” working behind the scenes of the industry and often not getting their due. Shot by Ethan James Green, the images showcase “fall’s standout looks” for the publication’s September issue.

“Fashion is bigger than the designers and models who fill the pages of Vogue,” reads the introduction to the package. “Behind the scenes, there’s a vibrant patchwork of talent at play: assistants, store clerks, personal shoppers, tailors, students, set designers and dozens of others who make fashion happen.”

She likened the sleek, black outfits donned by Trump daughters Ivanka and Tiffany and Donald Trump Jr. girlfriend Kimberly Guilfoyle to a “disconcerting…Trumpian version of ‘Charlie’s Angels'” and deconstructed Melania Trump’s choice of a neon-green Valentino dress, both noting its non-American-made origin and its unintentional ability to serve as a green screen playground for internet jokesters.
