Naomi Campbell wants Vogue Africa

It's time for Vogue to have an African edition.

Naomi Campbell, in Lagos, Nigeria, to attend the Arise Fashion Week, launches the proposal and says with a loud voice:

"There should be a Vogue Africa. We just had Vogue Arabia. It is the next progression. Africa never had the opportunity to be out there and their fabrics and their materials and their designs be accepted on the global platform".

And she added:

"People have come to realize it is not about the color of your skin to define if you can do the job or".

Africa is the second most populous continent in the world and the only one that does not have its regional edition of the iconic magazine, despite Conde Nast already published 27 international versions of her style bible.

The fashion monopoly remains white. Very few black designers and creatives direct fashion houses or magazines and, in the rare case they do, are often the first of a long series of white predecessors as happened with the arrival of Edward Enninful of head of Vogue UK and with Virgil Abloh which has recently become the first black designer artistic director of menswear for Louis Vuitton.
