Gabriella Karefa-Johnson has confirmed her resignation from Vogue after officially joining the publication in 2013. During an episode of The Business of Fashion podcast on 24 November, the fashion editor detailed her decision to not renew her contract as Global Fashion Director at large, in tandem with her industry plans moving forward. The seasoned professional - known to be the first Black woman to style a cover shoot for American Vogue - has already imposed immutable influence, passion, and drive to effect change in fashion. Karefa-Johnson’s devotion to creating a still image that tells a larger story, for the sole benefit of impacting others, is one that often fizzles for professionals inside the competitive fashion industry. In conversation with Imran Amed, the artist explained that her ultimate intention to make room for aspiring “little Gabriella Karefa-Johnsons” in the future was reflected through an eagerness for transparency. The two spoke about “burn out” and “pressure” within the fashion industry, arguing that a career in fashion shouldn’t force people to endure so much stress. For Karefa-Johnson, working for highly-regarded publications previously brought about mental hardship for her. However, the nature of the environment wasn’t necessarily what convinced her to leave her position at Vogue. “The truth is I was a contracted employee there as the Global Fashion Director at large, and my contract was up for renewal, and I decided not to renew it,” she confessed. “That resignation was something that was right for me at the time, still is right for me.” “The truth of the matter is like anything else, you know, we grow, and sometimes our containers don’t grow with us,” she continued. “And so I’m excited to build a new container for all of these ideas and this new energy. “I loved and learned so much at Vogue magazine. It’s my home. I grew up there, and I can’t wait to take those tools and apply them in ways that are really just true to who I am and serve me and serve people who look like me and people listen and follow me. It’s really about serving that community now.” Among Karefa-Johnson’s many Vogue cover shoots, there was one cover photo that was particularly striking in her opinion, for both good and bad reasons. In 2021, the fashion editor worked on Vice President Kamala Harris’ Vogue cover - a photograph that prompted widespread controversy and scrutiny. For the magazine cover, the vice president was positioned in front of a waterfall of pink satin pouring down by her feet. Harris donned a black pantsuit and an honest smile, while she wore a pair of black and white high-top Converse - her favourite everyday shoe. According to Karefa-Johnson, the politician’s natural poise was captured in just 25 minutes because that’s all the time the vice president had for the day. In addition to time constraints, Karefa-Johnson explained that there was a communication barrier due to Covid-19 masks and Harris’ large team of staff. The fashion editor was still able to successfully snap Harris in the way she intended, but backlash quickly followed as people criticised how Harris was presented. Earlier in the interview, Karefa-Johnson called her younger self “witty, loud, and drive” - similarly to how she views herself now. Before Vogue, the fashion editor worked for Garage magazine under Vice Media, the juggernaut that recently filed for chapter 11 bankruptcy.

I began writing my memoir without knowing how it’d end — a strange thing to say about a type of book that’s literally comprised of the memories that already reside in your own head. But I had no idea what I was driving toward as I began typing out the pages that’d eventually become Oh My Mother!, a book about the relationship I had and have with my own mother, Qing Li, who came to the United States in 1988 on a trip to visit my father who was studying abroad, found herself stuck in a new country and unable to return home, and was forced to begin the taxing process of reinventing her whole life at the age of 28.

Dina Lohan has revealed that her daughter Lindsay Lohan welcomed her first child “two days earlier” than her due date. Lindsay and her husband Bader Shammas confirmed via a representative on Monday (17 July) that they are now the proud parents of a “beautiful, healthy son named Luai”. In a statement, the representative added: “The family is over the moon in love.” Dina, 60, told Us Weekly that she had plans to travel to Dubai, where Lindsay and Shammas live, to be with her daughter before the birth. However, her second grandchild “decided to come early to join us sooner”, she said, adding: “We are so blessed and overjoyed and filled with so much love.” Lindsay, 37, announced that she was expecting her first child in March, less than a year after marrying Shammas in June 2022. She recently shared an inside look at her son’s beach-themed nursery with her fans on Instagram. The Falling For Christmas star posted a photograph of herself cradling her bump in front of a wall with a beach mural and a nautical-themed crib. In April, Lindsay shared photos from her baby shower with family and friends and wrote in the caption: “Good times. So grateful for all the wonderful people in my life.” She opened up about impending motherhood in an interview with Allure last month and said she “can’t wait” for the next chapter of her life. “I can’t wait to see what the feeling is and what it’s like to just be a mom,” she said. “Happy tears. That’s just who I am. Though now, it’s probably baby emotion. It’s overwhelming in a good way.” Lindsay and Shammas tied the knot last year after announcing their engagement in November 2021. In an appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, the Parent Trap star gushed about the Arabic financier and said he was her “person”. She described married life as “so special”, adding: “It’s great. I met my person, and you never know if you’re going to find that in life. “He’s an amazing man. I love him and we’re a great team.” Read More Sorry lads, we just can’t afford any more reckless, middle-aged adventurers Cruise line apologises after passengers witness dozens of pilot whales being slaughtered Woman’s response to Tinder match asking her to go on an ice cream date sparks debate Lindsay Lohan gives birth to her first child Support with mental health issues and finances should be linked – Martin Lewis Holiday childcare costs up with fewer places available, survey finds
