Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie covers Schick Magazine's November issue

Stunning author and feminist Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie covers November’s issue of Schick Magazine and speaks on feminism, fashion and literature.

For the cover of Schick Magazine, Chimamanda wears Bridget Awosika and Titi Adesa.

Speaking on intellectual women being concerned about their looks she says:

 “It’s important to challenge the idea that an intellectual woman cannot possibly like fashion.

There are intelligent women all over the world who like fashion, but they feel the pressure to pretend otherwise because they want to be taken seriously by a mainstream world that has decided that intelligent women cannot possibly like fashion."

On feminism she says;

“We have been socialised to think of power as male. So when a woman seeks power or has power, we judge her very harshly. We look for a reason to bring her down.”
