It was in the year of 1995 in a small beach town in Venezuela, where as a 15 year old, buying imported peanut M & M at the local kiosk, an international magazine caught my attention. Spending a week’s allowance, I purchased my 1st Harper’s Bazaar Magazine with Madonna on cover, shot by Peter Lindberg with iconic, breathtaking images that awoke my desire to learn more about how such timeless work can be created, to be curious about photographers, fashion, the world and a strange, uncontrollable compulsion to buy every magazine with Madonna on cover began.

Over the decades Madonna’s collaborations with the leading forces in fashion and entertainment is beyond belief. The fashion world’s preeminent photographers Mario Testino, Patrick Demarchelier, Tom Munro, Steven Klein and most recently Mert Alas & Marcus Piggot, alongside wardrobe wizard Arianne Phillips, have all been part responsible for the ever revolutionizing interpretations of herself in this new millennium. Following her print trajectory so closely over the years, has taught me to think outside the box, to constantly transform the way people see themselves, as beauty and style come from within and also to chose my teams wisely.
