Vogue Portugal Shoots Grace Anderson At Cultural Association Boes and Merdules

The location for the shoot is The Cultural Association Boes and Merdules in Ottana, Sardinia Italy. The group was established in 1973 with the intention of promoting carnival folk traditions. The ‘About us’ page image is all men, but let’s not jump to conclusions. For my own self-education this may be an important link in stories of human migration. On the rare chance that your interest is as keen as mine on this topic, I’m starting here: Genomic history of the Sardinian population. I love Vogue Portugal’s quiet but relentless focus on identity and the roots of our humanity.

Iris Apfel Makes a Vivid Impression In Luis Monteiro Images For Vogue Portugal August 2018

New York native Iris Apfel found the blazing limelight late in life -- not her 50s or 60s or even 70s. Apfel was in her 80s before she began popping up everywhere, and her distinctive, male bird of paradise style (females are notably less colorful in the animal world) caught the attention of New York's inner fashion circle.

Iris Apfel became the first living person not a fashion designer to have an exhibition dedicated to her at the Costume Institute at The Metropolitan Museum of Art. In 2015, Iris Apfel and her beloved, now-departed from earth husband of almost 70 years Carl, got the documentary treatment in the Albert Maysles film 'Iris'. Many believe that iris and Gucci Creative Director Alessandro Michele got together in another life.
