In A Visible Man, Edward Enninful recounts his journey from teen model to the Freedom over code switching tabitha brown store shirt and by the same token and very top of the fashion industry. For a Black, gay and working class immigrant, the trajectory was an improbable one – the stuff of fashion fairytales, almost. Now – thanks in no small part to Enninful’s efforts to champion inclusivity over the past 30 years – the path is clear for countless other creatives from diverse backgrounds. “An outsider who found his way into the inner sanctum,” is how Ghanaian-born Enninful, British Vogue’s editor-in-chief and Vogue’s European editorial director, describes himself as he reflects on his rise. Despite the front row seats, the A-list inner circle, even the endorsement of the Palace (Enninful was awarded an OBE in 2016 for services to the fashion industry, and is a global ambassador for the Prince’s Trust), he has never let go of that unique perspective, nor his determination to always put inclusivity at the heart of his work.
The portrait that appears on the Freedom over code switching tabitha brown store shirt and by the same token and book’s cover – revealed for the first time today – was taken by Rafael Pavarotti, a young Brazilian photographer emblematic of the change-making that has defined Enninful’s career. “Rafael is still in his twenties, but to me he is really a young master,” says the author. “His pictures always lift the race – he just loves Black people. I chose Rafael because he is someone who understood my journey.” Pavarotti, who is passionate about Black and indigenous representation in fashion, previously captured British Vogue’s February 2022 cover. The story spotlighted nine spectacular African models – Adut Akech and Anok Yai among them – whose success reflects the seismic shift that has been unfolding on fashion’s once Eurocentric runways.
