Vogue Italia pays tribute to Black Beauties





A tribute is due to the woman whose skin tone ranges from alabaster to mahogany to smooth onyx, who can flawlessly carry any makeup look—from gold dusted lids to fuchsia blush to ripe purple and pink glosses. These pages pay homage to the versatile woman whose hair can oscillate from a tightly coiled and coifed Afro, to sleek layers, to a slicked back pixie cut in a matter of minutes. To the divine woman whose enviably full lips, strong, white teeth, and delightful smile have been known to electrify the hearts of many. To the siren whose smooth, velvety skin blocks the sun yet remains supple and unblemished with the passage of time.
Variable and diverse, black beauty escapes simple classification. But no matter the incarnation—whether the color of molasses, cafĂ© au lait, bronze, tan, or tinged like desert sand—black beauties radiate with poise and multidimensional splendor.




This is beauty at its best. Colorful, playful and completely diverse. I can’t wait for American fashion magazines to jump on the band wagon. Le sigh…
- Tunisia Z. Wilson
