CONTRIBUTORS
JAKE TERREY
Jake Terrey is a fond member of the Vogue Australia family, and this month the Sydney-based photographer captured fi ve stories, from fashion to art. “It’s interesting to go from something designed like Kate Darvill and my Zimmermann shoot, to something purely documentary like the Aṉangu Pitjantjatjara Yankunytjatjara Lands art story I did with Sophie Tedmanson,” he says. “The objective remains the same: to have people naturally interact with the space you either make for them or the context they already exist in and then to find the right moment in that.”
JULIA GILLARD
Former Australian Prime Minister Julia Gillard writes for Vogue for the first time, detailing her passion for children’s education, one she shares with Rihanna. “Vogue Australia said it prides itself on showcasing important issues for women and girls, such as education, gender equality, humanitarianism and health, as well as the inspiring women who are leading the way in their fields. That’s why I wanted to contribute my article on travelling with Rihanna to Malawi earlier this year.” Read more about Ms Gillard’s experience on page 236.
CATHY KASTERINE
Stylist Cathy Kasterine began her career at British Vogue and has consulted and styled for some of the biggest fashion publications and brands, including Prada, Giorgio Armani and Louis Vuitton. For this issue, Kasterine styled ‘To the garden’, on page 176. “The inspiration was drawn from English family portraits and pictures found in 1980s British
Vogue,” she says of the concept for the story photographed in the English countryside. “The shoot was magical, as we were having a heatwave in Cornwall, which is quite rare in the English summer.”
EDWARD MAPPLETHORPE
“I’m accustomed to being interviewed about my own work and the years I spent working for my brother Robert; I was hesitant writing a first-person essay. But that said, I was honoured to have been asked by Vogue Australia and openly took on the challenge,” says artist Edward Mapplethorpe, who reflected on his late brother and renowned photographer Robert Mapplethorpe in ‘Through the lens’, from page 222. “As it happened, the experience was quite rewarding. Regardless of being interviewed on camera or now writing a first-person account of my years with Robert, it is always very cathartic and good for my soul.”
