On a fall night in 1987, a young woman was walking down the middle of a dark street in a rural Kentucky town. She heard a car turn onto the street behind her, and it sounded like it was driving fast, so she quickly got onto the sidewalk. Suddenly, the car screeched to a stop just a few feet away from her. The car doors flew open, and before the young woman knew what was happening, someone grabbed her, lifted her off the ground, and threw her into the backseat. The car sped off, and the terrified young woman would soon find herself in the middle of a horrific nightmare that would haunt her for almost 20 years…

Introducing SZA on Making Music From a Beautiful Place from The Run-Through with Vogue.
Follow the show: The Run-Through with Vogue

The Fashion Awards took place in London last night at the Royal Albert Hall, and British Vogue’s Chioma Nnadi skipped all the afterparties so that she could join Nicole Phelps immediately afterwards and give us a rundown of the evening.
We also have an extra-special treat: a conversation between Nnadi and SZA, British Vogue’s current cover star. This conversation feels less like an interview and more like sitting in on a conversation between two friends; which makes sense since Nnadi and Solána—SZA’s real name, and how Nnadi calls her—go back over a decade.
