Adesuwe Aighewi's Life Philosophy: I Can Feel Sexy While Claiming a Better World

Top model Adesuwa Aighewi covers the December 2019 issue of S Moda for El Pais. Aighewi is styled by Paula Delgado in images by Jack Waterlot./

AOC articulates Adesuwa Aighewi’s activist, documentary producer narrative constantly — as recently as last week — but we just learned a new reference from her S Moda interview. BTW, do you know that AOC tracks the intersection of black beauty, racism in fashion and beyond, colonialism, slavery in America and contemporary Africa in our GlamTribal channel”

‘How To Make a Slave’ by Willie Lynch

What AOC notes — and has never been exposed to in decades of work in civil rights — is her reference to ‘How To Make a Slave’ by Willie Lynch, an alleged slave owner in the West Indies. Looking for the best reference on this alleged, but heavily disputed speech, I will share this link for LongReads, because 1) it’s researched by librarians using the wayback machine, and it involves Kanye West. Denzel Washington quotes the letter at length in the 2007 film ‘The Great Debaters’.

Multiple voices in this article argue that the letter is a construction from the ‘60s or ‘70s, one created to confuse and disempower people of color. Rest assured that AOC will be investigating Aighewi’s reference to ‘How To Make a Slave’.

Model Chiara Scelsi poses in ‘Tesoros Ocultos’ (Hidden Treasure), a Gucci editorial focused on Gucci’s first high jewelry collection ‘Hortus Deliciarum’. Alessandro Michele personally selected unique gems and motifs that express his poetic vision of fine jewelry in a collection that includes two-hundred jewels, mainly one-off pieces, and evolves around three main themes viewed through the prism of a mythical garden.

The ‘Hortus Deliciarum’ jewelry collection finds its place in Gucci’s new boutique in Place Vendôme. It features the three themes of Alessandro Michele’s vision: 1) paying homage to eternal love’s classic emblems. 2) honoring the majesty of the animal world; and 3) a focus on the solitaire ring, reinterpreted according to a flamboyant allure.
