celebrate melanin in this stunning new afro-futuristic editorial

This week, we can’t get enough of celebrating melanin. We couldn’t get over Andre Damião editorial featuring dark skinned models showing off bright accents, and we we’re not taking our eyes off of this series anytime soon either. Fittingly titled “MELANIN”, the gorgeous photos by Brazilian photographer Gabryel Sampaio are a different take on showcasing Black beauty, an avant-garde, afrofuturist inspired art piece featuring Haitian model Jean Woolmay Denson Pierre.
