Eye: Karly Loyce Fronts Khaite Resort 2019 Lensed By Hanna Tvelte

Model Karly Loyce is styled by Gabrielle Marceca for Khaite Resort 2019 lookbook, lensed by Hanna Tveite.

Parsons School of Design graduate Catherine Holstein founded Khaite in 2015 following a major endorsement from legendary Barneys New York buyer, Julie Gilhart, who picked up her junior thesis collection. After working with brands like Maiyet, Vera Wang, and GAP, Holstein launched Khaite, pronounced “Kate,” referencing the Greek word meaning "long, flowing hair.” The women's ready-to-wear collection finds confidence in contrast: of masculine and feminine, strength and softness, structure and fluidity, classic and modern. Each piece proposes a fresh balance of opposing elements while embodying a signature sensuality and ease. See more of the Khaite Resort 2019 Collection.

IMAN Talks Models Of Color In Fashion With Porter Edit Oct. 26, 2018: We've Come A Long Way, Baby

Porter Edit’s October 26 2018 issue turns its focus on supermodel, makeup entrepreneur, humanitarian and champion of black women’s rights: IMAN. Tracy Taylor styles the fashion icon in trench coats and utilitarian suitings from Michael Kors, Victoria Beckham, Joseph, Chloe and more for images by Hanna Tveite.

Jane Mulkerrings conducts the interview that touches on many topics from IMAN’s discovery by legendary photographer Peter Beard to her constant grief over the loss of her husband David Bowie.

It’s her focus on the fashion industry and her own activism on behalf of models of color that demands our focus, educating even me on the activism of IMAN, Bethann Hardison and Naomi Campbell’s launching of a campaign in September 2013 to force a reckoning over the dearth of models of color on the catwalk.

At AOC we see this pace of a primary place for models of color in the fashion industry escalating dramatically in 2017-2018. IMAN is totally correct is affirming that the changes are not only visible but blindingly so. It’s dazzling, frankly. Nobody gets a gold star for taking what was the right path all along. Nevertheless, the changes are breathtaking and a moment of joy for me personally as a citizen of Trumplandia.
