I find this spread and the whole issue to be disappointing. A fashion magazine of this caliber should know better than to feature not just this example of blind cultural appropriation, but a second editorial in this issue also featured a model wearing a Native American head dress. Vogue should be better than that.
The clothes are nice but the systematic head turban …north Afrrica style reminds me too many bad images we see in the press today..which has nothing to do with the liberty of women..in the seventies we would have find it exotic …but with today’s life and information..i don’t see it like that anymore…..

Sandals over socks are always so tricky to pull off. I’m digging the toned down eyebrows. They create a more mysterious face, almost as if she was portraying a mythological creature.

These looks are pretty cool! The full red outfit is particularly striking in my opinion!

Culture appropriation at best.
I have been writing and thinking about “Playful Opulence” this week and these photos give those words a visual expressions. Luxe, gorgeous clothing.
