“But I still thought [her clothing] was cool because it was thrift, and things that come from places with culture and history are more important than a name brand. And I think that was taught to me through my mom, because I love all of her…like a small copper ring that she got from Nigeria. And she would add it to her outfit, and it just made so much more sense than anything that she could have purchased here, and I’m like, damn, okay, I get it. It’s energy, it’s all just energy. That’s what makes them fly.” – SZA quote regarding her mother.
Hitting global newsstands on April 13, Editor in Chief Carine Roitfeld unveiled CR Fashion Book (CRFB) Issue 22 with eight stunning covers featuring international music sensation SZA, the upcoming Peter Pan & Wendy star Ever Anderson, fashion muse and internet breakout star Emma Chamberlain, models Karlie Kloss, Saskia De Brauw, Gabbriette, and Abby Champion, and actress and television personality Lisa Rinna. Simultaneously, British actor Harris Dickinson covers Issue 16 of CR Men (CRM).
Roitfeld recently announced that the upcoming issue will be dedicated to Mother Nature and its beauty. As a mother and grandmother, Roitfeld feels a strong sense of responsibility to ensure that future generations have the opportunity to experience and connect with nature in its purest form.
One of the issue’s highlights is a personal tribute to the iconic fashion designer and environmental activist Vivienne Westwood, which features iconic supermodel Karlie Kloss. Roitfeld recognizes Westwood’s fierce dedication to protecting the planet and hopes to inspire readers with her message.
“It’s time to think about our legacy, not only as what we will be remembered for, but how future generations can benefit from it,” says Roitfeld. “I hope this issue serves as a reminder that nature is not forever if we don’t all take action now.”
The stunning homage to Vivienne Westwood is brought to life by guest creative directors Kate Aubrey and Kyra Griffin, with photography by Emma Summerton and fashion styling by Roitfeld herself.
The American singer SZA is featured in a fashion spread photographed by Nick Riley Bentham. The article discusses SZA’s self-described neurosis, her ability to express emotion on her records, and how her music explores themes of polyamory and personal entanglements.
