Rihanna for Garage Magazine The Human Future -Issue 15 by Deana Lawson

ArianneUpdated on September 4, 2018September 4, 2018

When you thought Rihanna is only going to hit you with a Vogue September cover! One of fashion’s undisputed couture queens continues her dominance with the release of yet another set of magazine visuals. This time the songstress plops herself down in front of photography genius, Deana Lawson. Let’s get into this one babes, Rihanna for Garage Magazine The Human Future edition!

Rihanna for Garage Magazine The Human Future -Issue 15 by Deana Lawson

New album, new makeup dropping and more fashion editorials. Rih is certainly giving the masses what they want! Garage Magazine released a statement regarding their Badgalriri and Lawson collab. The mag states,

“Behold! Rihanna stars on the cover GARAGE issue 15, The Human Future, photographed by artist Deana Lawson. Rihanna is a queen, but under Deana Lawson’s gaze even mere mortals take on an indisputable regality.

In conversation with fellow artist, Arthur Jafa, Deana Lawson reflects on how she came to photography and the process of taking pictures beyond the surface. Meet the celebrated artist behind this photograph [and read] the full story on garage.vice.com.”

So what are the kind of things Deana and Arthur gab about? For one, Lawson’s drive to create on her on terms. In conversation with Arthur Jafe, Deana says,

“Someone said that I’m ruthless when it comes to what I want. Maybe that’s part of it: I have an image in mind that I have to make. It burns so deeply that I have to make it; and I don’t care what people are going to think.”

Rihanna for Garage Magazine The Human Future -Issue 15 by Deana Lawson (Continued)

So how does she do it? How is Lawson able to make her artistic vision stand out from the rest of the pack? In Garage’s issue 15 featuring Rihanna, Deana gets real on her ethic and eye for great photography. She reveals,

“When I’m going out to make work, usually I’m choosing people that come from a lower or working-class situation. My choice feels natural because it’s a rejection of the people and forces I grew up around in Rochester… It’s about value. It’s about using a figure or a body to represent something higher than we would normally associate it with.

“I believe… I was destined to be an artist with a camera. It all adds up: my grandmother who worked for George Eastman, my mother who was a secretary at Kodak; my aunt who helps people ‘see,’ [and] my father who was the family photographer. How could it not be destiny?”

Fashion Notes: For her cover Rihanna wears a slew of designer attire. Her black briefs are Dolce & Gabbana, jewelry is from Tiffany & Co., pink vintage top is One of a Kind Fashion Archive; with shoes by Y Project.

Axel Arigato x Samsung -Tech Meets Fashion With Help of Teyana Taylor!

ArianneUpdated on August 29, 2018August 29, 2018

This is what happens when a fashion label and tech giant have a baby. In a collaboration truly for the ages, the Axel Arigato x Samsung capsule is the ultimate lesson is transparency. Literally and figuratively. Read on to see our exclusive sneak peek.

Axel Arigato x Samsung -Tech Meets Fashion With Help of Teyana Taylor

You probably can see right through this ad campaign (wink, wink). Thus far, early previews of the type of couture to expect from the Axel Arigato x Samsung mix up is leaving little to the imagination. In the campaign singer and entertainer, Teyana Taylor, poses in plastic couture reminiscent of the decade that was the 90s. Remember transparent bags and Diddy as well as Ma$e dancing in plastic joggers (if not; Google it’s fab)? Well, that is coming back with fervor yet with a bit of a modern twist.

Teyana’s full body ensemble incorporates a stylish, yet revealing pant and hoodie. The Swedish brand informs that more looks are definitely on the way; and couture lovers can expect the full collection to roll out in three phases.

The collection will first be available to the edgy, fashion conscious in London beginning on September 7th. Next up, the good people of Stockholm will get their shot at the line on September 14th. Lastly, all the rest of us mortals will finally be able to see and get our hands on pieces and garments from the capsule starting on September 17th. Axel Arigato says that on the 17th the entire collection will be online. Sweet.

Axel Arigato x Samsung -Tech Meets Fashion With Help of Teyana Taylor (Continued)

This team up as well as the resulting fashions are quite fitting. Why so? Well, for over a year now Samsung’s growing infamous tagline is, “Do What You Can’t.” Roving around the streets in see through clothing certainly fits that bill.

Furthermore, the collaboration between Samsung and Axel Arigato is aptly entitled, I Can See Clearly Now. A nice play off every smartphone owner’s dream of being able to hear, see and talk to anyone with their phone without interruption.

Already, tech fans are wondering if this collab also means amazing clear accessories or even a clear phone design. As epic as that sounds we will all just have to keep our eyes peeled when the capsule officially drops. Nonetheless, by the looks of things it is definitely going to be, wait for it… legendary.
