When I first saw the cover I wondered what was so different about the image, then I realised that the Island girl is wearing a Doek, turban or Durag as stated in the British Vogue. The magazine said that the tainted fabric has been reclaimed as a symbol of black beauty, a signifier of style worn on the streets, the catwalk, the red carpet… And now, in a powerful mic-drop moment, the durag is making its first appearance on the May 2020 cover of British Vogue, worn by Rihanna, stated the magazine.
