Independent goes Red

[by Michele Obi | 21 September 2006 | No Comment]

Giorgio Armani plays guest editor to The Independent’s “African Issue” on stands today. Half of all revenue made from sales will be donated to the RED initiative, created to help fight aids in Africa.

What’s interesting is the decision to use a black Kate Moss for its front cover, surely an African model such as Alek Wek, Liya Keybede or Iman would have had more significance.

Michele Obi is the publisher and founder of My Fashion Life. In between editing, freelancing and spending most of her time on the internet, she also finds time to shop (too much) and obsess over shoes. She loves sushi and counts Matthew Williamson, John Galliano, Valentino and Hussein Chalayan as her favourite designers. Her biggest regret - never seeing Prince in concert!
