Fuentura is the second largest of the Canary Islands off the coast of North Africa, with Tenerife being the largest. The island's history is rooted its indigenous Guanche population’s colonization by the Spanish.
The island is not tied historically to the slave trade, unlike the Canary Islands of La Palma, La Gomera, and El Hierro.
The always bankable Malgosia Bela covers the February 2024 issue of ELLE France [IG], posing in tailored glamour — or is it just Malgosia herself — styled by Hortense Manga.
New York based — but Aussie born and raised — photographer Chris Colls [IG] is in the studio, capturing the many layers of Malgosia Bela’s being. It’s always obvious to me that Colls connects in a human way with the models he photographs. I love these Malgosia Bela images. ~ Anne

Margaret Zhang’s tenure as editor-in-chief of Vogue China will be a short one.
Condé Nast chief content officer Anna Wintour shared the news with Vogue China staff in an email on Friday that Zhang will be leaving the publication at the end of March when her contract expires.
Youngest EIC Ever
Zhang’s appointment to the prestigious position of editor-in-chief in February 2021 redefined the career skills propelling a professional talent into such a prestigious position. Not only was Zhang the youngest Vogue editor ever at just 27, she was the first influencer — and one with little magazine experience — to be named a top editor at any Vogue edition.

Original supermodel and “legendary’ Gianni Versace muse, Claudia Schiffer takes the star position in the Versace spring/summer 2024 campaign.
Friend to the house and close friend of Donatella Versace, Schiffer wore a similar Atelier Versace version of the dress to the recent premiere of the Argylle movie in London.

Chaumet [IG] ambassador and top model Coco Rocha takes flight in Un Air de Chaumet High Jewellery, a new collection capturing the grace of birds with a daring and original approach to design.
Four design concepts anchor the new collection: Ballet, Parade, Flight and Golden Feathers
Tory Burch [IG] strikes up the band, taking her Spring-Summer 2024 Campaign to Marfa, Texas, a small desert town in west Texas. population 1,748. Marfa has a very big reach both east and west as an arts center. Those damn liberals keep showing up in Marfa, trying to wreck the whole state of Texas, from the point of view of Governor Greg Abbott.
In fact, the arrival of this great campaign starring Grace Elizabeth, Ida Heiner and Selena Forrest is deeply political — perfectly timed as a clapback to the freakin’ absurd MAGA meltdown over Taylor Swift this week.
Only Taylor Swift appearing on horseback, disguised as a member of the Texas Rangers, but then jumping off her stallion and into the street guns blazing [in the air] to save Grace, Ida and Selena from an impending arrest would make this advert any better. What is their crime? Disturbing the peace.
Photographer Jamie Hawkesworth [IG] would be stupified over the entire scene but covering all the action from every angle. Meanwhile Brian Molloy does an excellent job styling this production, with hair by Jimmy Paul and makeup by Dick Page.
Top models América González and Sora Choi are styled by Eniola Dare in ‘Up and Away’.
