Again, Naomi Campbell leapt onto social media to celebrate yet another success story for her longtime friend Edward Enninful. Campbell had gone full throttle in the celebration of Enninful’s new project, 72 Magazine, that included a 14-page tribute spread featuring Campbell herself.
“CONGRATULATIONS @edward_enninful @ee72 HAS LAUNCHED,” Campbell said with her beloved capital letter all-caps style with a few emoji heart and raised hands thrown into the mix. Alongside this, she urged viewers to go ahead and order their copy of 72 Magazine today in support of this celebration of British beauty, style, and rebellion as captured through the lens of Inez & Vinoodh.
The working relationship between Enninful and Campbell has spanned decades from the moment Enninful was appointed fashion director of i-D magazine at the age of 18. Another chapter gets added to their shared parallel in the professional arena with their joint effort on numerous Vogue issues and fashion campaigns.
Excitement started to stir among the followers who loved Campbell and the launch of the magazine. One admirer remarked, “So beautiful and pretty,” clearly reflecting the collective aura of appreciation that many felt towards Campbell in the publication. Yet another complimented them enthusiastically in a mixed language: “HAYYYYEE LA PAUSEE TROP CHIC.”
This heartfelt reaction was followed up by another comment that reads, “Sweet beautiful pic luv u,” portraying once again how their fans feel personally connected with the supermodel. An international representative of the celebration chimed in with a comment in Russian: “Like toy soldiers Friendship between peoples is more valuable than money,” practically hinting at the way fashion and beauty transcend all borders.
It is his first big project since resigning as editor-in-chief at British Vogue last year. The magazine carries his work in defense of diversity and innovation within fashion, principles incidentally very dear to Campbell’s heart and career as she fought hard to break down many barriers for models of color.
The launch happens to be timed with quite a significance in the life of both icons. Campbell is testing new grounds in television and activism, including hosting a historic first concert in Vatican City, while Enninful continues shaping fashion media landscape with other ventures. Working together, of course, goes on to prove just how relevant these creative collaborations remain in shaping an industry that will keep changing through time.
Being so warmly received by friends and fans surely must have uplifted the ranking of this duo in the fashion world. Thus, as the tides shift in the industry, launching 72 Magazine is also a landmark occasion in fashion publishing, being barked by some heavyweights today.
This public endorsement by Campbell would have had far-reaching effects across the fashion circles that have to be credited for the early success of the magazine. It is her immense capacity to rally her masses around her that ushers supermodel influence into an entirely different stratosphere of this digital world. She recently celebrated a powerful moment with Miley Cyrus in a new music video.

The road once laid down by the two multiples of fashion is still being paved with moments that reverberate within the industry and around the world for another group-the fashion lovers. Campbell has recalled wild nights in Ibiza, and shared an emotional tribute to Pope Francis in Rome.
