Style section


Some time ago we pointed you to body painter Guido Daniele who swiped Moko for his own ends. He’s not alone. Of many examples of Moko used in the fashion industry, Jean Paul Gaultier and Paco Rabanne stand out. Although there have been some attempts to stop this use of Moko, spare a thought for Africa. In his Spring/ Summer 2009 Tribal chic collection for Dior, John Galliano used a fertility goddess as the heel of a sandal. Yours for $1,590.
