Vogue Greece’s May 2024 issue features an editorial with photographer Thanassis Krikis (10 AM) paying tribute to the iconic Italian-American photographer Tina Modotti. Blurring the boundaries of time in a captivating series of images with model Africa Garcia, the story evokes the 1930s.
Nature takes center stage for the visuals, inspired by Modotti’s work in Mexico during the interwar period. Creative and fashion director Nicholas Georgiou weaves a narrative of elegance, showcasing long, flowing skirts, rich brocade jackets, and airy blouses that dance.
The designs of Etro, Bottega Veneta, and Dior make an appearance with intricate details and luxurious fabrics a perfect fit for the natural backdrop. Africa’s beauty look is equally captivating.
Hairstylist Christos Kallaniotis crafts vintage pinned curls, while makeup artist Athina Karakitsou adds a touch of understated sophistication. Inspired by the retrospective held at Jeu de Paume in Paris, this summer story is a love letter to Tina Modotti’s remarkable legacy.
