The fourth location in our globe trotting series where the @mm6maisonmargiela x @thenorthface collaboration is reinterpreted is: Düsseldorf, Germany! Photographer @ignaziolozano and stylist teamed up to capture the collection in a variety of natural spaces, as Lozano explains to V “where the garments were familiar with the environment”—thus creating a unity between somber forestry and the hard rock of the great outdoors.

The third location in our global series where the @mm6maisonmargiela x @thenorthface collaboration gets captured through a new lens is Rockaway, New York! Photographer @marietomanova and stylist @deandicriscio capture a fun-in-the-sun moment, as Marie explains “It is a story of two beautiful souls wandering the shores of NYC, sharing moments and growing a friendship. I wanted the open sky, the never-ending ocean and portray the love and connection between people where only the sky is the limit.” Head to the link in bio for the full story! — Photography: @marietomanova Fashion: @deandicriscio Art Direction: @gabrielebaldotto Models: @adotthegreatt (@apmmodels) / @benjistaker (@imgmodels) Hair: @gonn24 using @amika — [Image 1] Adot and Benji wear all clothing and accessories @mm6maisonmargiela x @thenorthface [Image 2,4, 5] Benji wears all clothing and accessories @mm6maisonmargiela x @thenorthface [Image 3] Adot wears coat @mm6maisonmargiela x @thenorthface / top @mm6maisonmargiela [Image 6] Adot wears Benji wears jacket @mm6maisonmargiela x @thenorthface / top and pants  @mm6maisonmargiela

The second location in our globe trotting story where the @mm6maisonmargiela x @thenorthface collaboration gets put to the test is Cadiz, Spain! Photographer @noelquintela and stylist @samiagiobellina partnered for a moody, nighttime shoot to capture what Quintela called a “beautiful metamorphosis.” Quintela chose the Valdevaqueros dunes to depict a foreign traveler’s spaceship stranded in the middle of nowhere, explaining “I normally feel attracted to dystopic, unsettling, or surreal situations so the idea of working around the unexpected as a concept sounded really fun to me.” ✨ Head to the link in bio for the full story! — Photography: @noelquintela Fashion: @samiagiobellina Art Direction: @gabrielebaldotto Models: @meimeilapres (@premium_models) Hair & Makeup: @shaila_moran Production: @cristinamenendez — [Image 1 & 3] Mae wears coat, top, pants @mm6maisonmargiela / parka (worn under) @mm6maisonmargiela x @thenorthface / shoes stylist’s own [Image 2 & 5] Mae wears jacket, gloves @mm6maisonmargiela x @thenorthface / bodysuit @mm6maisonmargiela / Shoes, stockings stylist’s own [Image 4] Mae wears parka @mm6maisonmargiela x @thenorthface / Pants @mm6maisonmargiela

Armed with @mm6maisonmargiela’s FW20 collab with @thenorthface, four international teams test the collection against the elements. First location: Har Zin Mountain, Israel. Photographer @yanivedry1 and stylist @aryehlappin worked together on a group desert shoot, where Edry got the sense of “something spacey and infinite” due to the round motifs of the collection, which resonated with him and evoked “the feeling that we are on some star on another planet”⭐️ Head to the link in bio to discover the full story! — Photography: @yanivedry1 Fashion: @aryehlappin Art Direction: @gabrielebaldotto Models: @monica_joseph_ (@yulimodels), @fayjakite (@yulimodels), , Hair: @yanivzada Makeup: @michalronenmua — [Image 1] Ryan wears jacket, pants and sunglasses @mm6maisonmargiela / Shoes and bracelet model’s own // Monica wears top @mm6maisonmargiela x @thenorthface / pants and shoes @mm6maisonmargiela // Fatima wears jacket @mm6maisonmargiela x @thenorthface / top and pants @mm6maisonmargiela [Image 2] Wayi wears jacket @mm6maisonmargiela x @thenorthface / pants MM6 @mm6maisonmargiela / shoes model’s own // Monica wears top @mm6maisonmargiela x @thenorthface / pants and boots @mm6maisonmargiela / jewelry model’s own // Ryan wears jacket, pants and sunglasses @mm6maisonmargiela / Shoes and bracelet model’s own // Fatima wears jacket @mm6maisonmargiela x @thenorthface / Top, pants and boots @mm6maisonmargiela [Image 3] Monica wears scarf, over shoulder @mm6maisonmargiela x @thenorthface / Top, vest and pants @mm6maisonmargiela [Image 4] Wayi wears scarf @mm6maisonmargiela x @thenorthface / Pants @mm6maisonmargiela [Image 5] Wayi wears jacket @mm6maisonmargiela x @thenorthface / pants @mm6maisonmargiela [Image 6] Fatima wears dress @mm6maisonmargiela x @thenorthface / Top, pants and boots @mm6maisonmargiela // Wayi wears top and scarf @mm6maisonmargiela x @thenorthface / Pants @mm6maisonmargiela / Shoes model’s own // Ryan wears scarf @mm6maisonmargiela x @thenorthface / Pants and sunglasses @mm6maisonmargiela / Shoes and bracelet model’s own

V127: THE THOUGHT LEADERS ISSUE @JabariForStateSenate (Democratic Nominee For New York’s 25th State Senate) “There are a lot of hot-button issues right now, like the ‘Walking While Trans’ bill, which is an anti-loitering bill targeting women—predominantly trans women and women of color—and accusing them of soliciting sex work. Drug laws enable cops to target Black and brown people. What we should be focusing on is guaranteeing health care to all people—queer people and people of color, especially, who are less likely to have health care. That’s super important. We have a fight against neoliberalism in this country, but also against fascism. I believe in voting to ensure we have a chance to push for these agendas.” Head to the link in bio for the full feature & pre-order V127 now to get the issue before election day! — Photography by @inezandvinoodh Fashion by @aryehlappin Interview by @owenmyers Casting by @itboygregk Jabari wears top @armaniexchange — Be sure to register to vote on our V IS FOR VOTE hub on vmagazine.com, created in collaboration with @plus1vote!

V127: THE THOUGHT LEADERS ISSUE @ilana (Comedian and co-founder of @generatorcollective) “Voting is hard, and it shouldn’t be hard. If we can order alcohol, food, and sex toys to our door on the phone, why can’t we register to vote on our phone? It’s so fucked up that voting is made so confusing and so hard. They want us to feel so ashamed—to be shamed out of participating in the system. But I refuse to feel stupid...So, we created a web series called ‘Cheat Sheet for the Voting Booth,’ which was basically a COVID-friendly version of the work I’ve been doing since 2016, when I co-founded a non-profit for voter empowerment called Generator. ‘Cheat Sheets’ is a web series where I interview actors, musicians, athletes, etc., who have authentic connections to swing states. The first episode was with my partner, Abbi Jacobson, who is from Pennsylvania. Her family is there, her childhood memories are there...And we just talked it out. We went down the ballot, shining a light on candidates who are fighting for basic human rights. Most of them just want more access to affordable health care; more money in the public education system.” Head to the link in bio for the full feature & pre-order V127 now to get the issue before election day! — Photography by @inezandvinoodh Fashion by @aryehlappin Interview by @samandersondotcom Casting by @itboygregk Ilana wears middle necklace @cartier / top and bottom necklace her own — Be sure to register to vote on our V IS FOR VOTE hub on vmagazine.com, created in collaboration with @plus1vote!

V127: THE THOUGHT LEADERS ISSUE @GabrielOcasioCortez (Artist and Specialist in Homelessness) “It’s important to vote because it’s sacred. There’s blood on your hands if you don’t. You’re spitting in the face of everyone who died overseas, and everyone who volunteered to give their life potentially just for your sake of having a voice. Working with my sister Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was one of the first times that I actually had faith in the government. I could actually say, ‘Hey, I know that that’s a decent person, fighting for decent things.’ And I could honestly bet my life on it.” Head to the link in bio for the full feature & pre-order V127 now to get the issue before election day! — Photography by @inezandvinoodh Fashion by @aryehlappin Interview by @owenmyers Casting by @itboygregk Gabriel wears top and jacket @zegnaofficial — Be sure to register to vote on our V IS FOR VOTE hub on vmagazine.com, created in collaboration with @plus1vote!

V127: THE THOUGHT LEADERS ISSUE @emrata (Writer and Entrepreneur) “Voting this year is particularly important because there is so much at stake. Four more years of a Trump administration and a Republican-controlled Senate could be permanently detrimental to our country. I endorsed Bernie in both 2016 and 2020. I was very disappointed when he and Elizabeth Warren left the race. While Joe Biden is not the progressive candidate I had hoped for, I’m hopeful we can push him further to the left with pressure from the growing progressive movement in this country. Ultimately, I can’t sit this one out and watch the country move further to the right without doing everything in my power, however limited my personal power may be, to get Trump out of office.” Head to the link in bio for the full feature & pre-order V127 now to get the issue before election day! — Photography by @inezandvinoodh Interview by @mathiasrosenzweig Casting by @itboygregk — Be sure to register to vote on our V IS FOR VOTE hub on vmagazine.com, created in collaboration with @plus1vote!

V127: THE THOUGHT LEADERS ISSUE @ElaineWelteroth (Writer and Cultural Ambassador of @whenweallvote) “It’s important to remember that not everyone in our country has access to vote. There are immigrants and formerly incarcerated people who contribute to our communities and are affected every single day by the laws of this land but yet, they are left out of the political process. I vote with their interests in mind, and I vote on behalf of the people who came before me, who fought for me to have this privilege. As a descendent of enslaved people in this country, it is a freedom my ancestors fought hard for. I truly believe not voting would undermine their sacrifice and their fight. It’s the absolute least I can do to effect the change I want to see in the world.” Head to the link in bio for the full feature & pre-order V127 now to get the issue before election day! — Photography by @inezandvinoodh Interview by @overlyopinionatedblackperson Casting by @itboygregk Elaine wears top @pyermoss — Be sure to register to vote on our V IS FOR VOTE hub on vmagazine.com, created in collaboration with @plus1vote!

V127: THE THOUGHT LEADERS ISSUE @_Dilone (Model and Actress) “If there’s anything that you want to challenge, it’s important to vote. I remember growing up feeling like I didn’t have the capability to create change, and voting gives you that power. Causes like health care, climate change, racial inequality, immigration, gun control, criminal justice, workers’ rights, LGBTQIA+ rights, reproductive rights, taxes, foreign policy, college affordability—all these things you have control over when you say, ‘This matters to me, and I want to do something about this.’ I feel like the fashion industry has been very understanding of its power in a time like this. We’ve acknowledged that voting is so important and it’s a privilege to have so many eyes on us, so when we say ‘This is the time when you need to vote’, it feels like a duty more than anything.” Head to the link in bio for the full feature & pre-order V127 now to get the issue before election day! — Photography by @inezandvinoodh Interview by @thekevinponce Casting by @itboygregk Dilone wears top @guess — Be sure to register to vote on our V IS FOR VOTE hub on vmagazine.com, created in collaboration with @plus1vote!

V127: THE THOUGHT LEADERS ISSUE @ConanGray (Musician) “The future is very much in our hands. I urge everybody, all of the youth across America—but especially in my home state—to use their privilege of being able to vote. Texas very much lies right in the in-between, which includes the youth and young people. It’s just an ever-changing place, and it’s important that it also looks that way politically. By voting, by standing up with the people who have suffered from the hands of racial injustice, we can center civility and love. That needs to be done as soon as possible in this country, with this generation. We actually have the power to do it this time.” Head to the link in bio for the full feature & pre-order V127 now to get the issue before election day! — Photography by @inezandvinoodh Interview by @samandersondotcom Casting by @itboygregk — Be sure to register to vote on our V IS FOR VOTE hub on vmagazine.com, created in collaboration with @plus1vote!

V127: THE THOUGHT LEADERS ISSUE @CTurlington (Model and Founder of @everymomcounts) “I truly believe that participation is the right of all rights. You can’t fully participate in society if you don’t exercise your right to vote. I am voting because it is my civic responsibility to vote and to add my voice to the group of Americans who are fighting for equality in every representation of it. If you are voting for the first time you need to make a plan in advance. Ask your school or employer well in advance for time off to vote. Make sure you are registered and have the correct address. Go early and do your research in advance. It can be a long wait in the best of times, so prepare to really wait now. You will feel proud to have voted no matter what the experience was like afterward.” Head to the link in bio for the full feature & pre-order V127 now to get the issue before election day! — Photography by @inezandvinoodh Interview by @overlyopinionatedblackperson Casting by @itboygregk — Be sure to register to vote on our V IS FOR VOTE hub on vmagazine.com, created in collaboration with @plus1vote!
