Vogue Italia July/August

These have been strange months, almost in convalescence, where our post-pandemic lives seem poised between a state of shock for the past and uncertainty about the future. Legitimate concerns are also protracting towards an autumn that promises economic crises and social tensions. Meanwhile, a large slice of public opinion in many Western countries is finally trying to call time on hateful racial discrimination, and yet simultaneously, almost everywhere, it seems that walls are being strengthened and new forms of intolerance are emerging. Everyone bets that this year is destined to change the world once and for all, but nobody really knows how.
In these doubtful times, we think there is one word that, with its shameless innocence, deserves the attention of our readers more than any other.

Because, in a year that has been anything but happy for just about everyone, there are plenty of excellent reasons to talk about happiness. Is happiness still possible after everything we’ve been through? Are there any traits that make it a common and shared state of being? How does the idea of happiness change at different latitudes? Does its social dimension also entail redemption? And is there anything wrong or blameworthy about seeking it even in our small, everyday pleasures, in the things we possess, or in those we’d like to possess?

Dazed Autumn 2020 Issue: Read up Act Up issue

Now we know what the world looks like when it shuts down, what will the future be? Fronted by a series of text-led covers, this autumn issue replaces cover stars with conversation, celebrating the power of words to inspire, inform and reimagine the world anew. We invite six essential figures leading the fight for progressive change to guest-edit their own section. Bringing together a multitude of voices, their stories tackle the issues that matter most right now, from the ongoing fight for prison abolition to racial injustice and the future of creative protest.

Here and There 14
Nakako Hayashi

Now, with the benefit of smartphones, we can instantly connect with anyone we want and shop for things online anytime we wish. As it has become much easier to collect massive amounts of information in a blink of an eye, as well as to fulfill our desires, I believe now is the time to ask ourselves the question. “In what do we place our values?” We have consciously begun to make the effort to draw a map using our imagination, by connecting the present to the past, and to design our future beyond that map.

The title for this issue COLLAGE came to mind from an interview with Teppei Kaneuji which was part of a book of interviews I was putting together at the same time, called “Tsukuru Riyuu (The Reason to Create)”: A Series of Interviews by Nakako Hayashi. Stating that his media of expression as a collage, Kaneuji, in his attempt to redefine the concept of collage, says that “A collage is an act to personally resist the conventional time, value, history and sets of rules, and to resist a much larger force with an accumulation of smaller actions.”

Floragatan 13

Curated By Acne Studios

An A Magazine Curated By special print project in partnership with Acne Studios, conceived as a visual essay by acclaimed French photographer Philippe Chancel revealing the inner workings of Floragatan 13, the former Czech embassy in Stockholm, Sweden transformed into a fashion atelier and corporate office.

On the occasion of the unveiling of the new Acne Studios headquarters in Stockholm, Sweden, A Magazine Curated By presents Floragatan 13 Curated By Acne Studios, an
architectural and design survey of this exceptional building and its contemporary usage as a fashion atelier and corporate office.

This 100-page document delves into the building floor by floor, beginning with the sixth level management offices and descending ten storeys through each crucial component of the design and production ateliers including inspiring and communal spaces such as the ground floor library, underground canteen and photo studio. Numerous floors reveal bespoke and site-specific design projects by long-time Acne Studios favourites including a state-of-the-art lighting network designed by Benoit Lalloz, furniture by Max Lamb, and artworks by Daniel Silver. Philippe Chancel’s crisp, exacting photography is accompanied by insightful quotes by Acne Studios creative director Jonny Johansson, architect Johannes Norlander, the Acne Studios teams and external collaborators.

INTERVIEW #532: “LANA DEL REY,” - September 2020

Who is Lana del Rey? She is Elizabeth Grant, the New York City-born musician who got her start playing Brooklyn’s underground club circuit. She is the scrappy singer who uploaded two homemade videos to the internet, only to watch her career explode in the aftermath. She is the self-described underdog, an oft-misunderstood purveyor of glamorous and tragic Americana, apocalypse and utopia, breathless romance, and devastating isolation—often crashing into one another. And she is our September 2020 cover star. In our new issue, the first in our history made entirely remotely, the elusive pop star talks to her producer Jack Antonoff about her upcoming album, going country, and the end of the world. Elsewhere in the issue, fashion industry oracle Bethann Hardison tells Zendaya why her fight for diversity is far from over, and movie-star-in-the-making Antony Ramos and his A Star Is Born director Bradley Cooper dissect the fallacy of stardom. Meanwhile, the author Emma Cline talks daddy issues and directing with the legendary filmmaker Brian De Palma, and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Jabari Brisport look to make all kinds of trouble. 

Ahead of the release of his latest novel Inside Story, Martin Amis sits down with his friend Salman Rushdie to reflect on the friends they lost and the literary movement to which they belonged. Nightlife legends Connie Girl and Honey Dijon reminisce on what it was like being a star below 14th Street, and the artist Lawrence Weiner has a conversation about art and abnegation with the rock star Kim Gordon. And feminist icon Gloria Steinem answers a bunch of questions from some of her famous friends and admirerers. All that, and so much more.

Ships end of September/beginning of October

L'Uomo – May 2020

Ever since its founding in 1967, it has earned a place as the most authoritative men’s fashion magazine in the world, a privileged partner for Italian designer brands, a scout of groundbreaking photographers, trendsetting dressers and fashion revolutions. After its 50th anniversary L’Uomo Vogue has been relaunched as a bilingual English-Italian quarterly with a new supersized format, a very modern design and four sections. L’Uomo has a ldigital presence within Vogue.it and its own social presence, and also organises a series of live events.

Version – Vol. 1

In the launch issue there are over 90 pages of fashion editorial, shooting with Marcus Schaefer, Umit Savaci, Raphael Bliss, Charlie Gates, and more. Jasmina Vico (beautician of choice for Jodie Comer and Issamaya French) showcases her futuristic beauty treatments in a fashion shoot with photographer Umit Savaci and make-up artist Jimmy Owen Jones.

Version magazine commissioned the first digital up-cycled fashion brand, where they provided Danish designer Anne Sofie Madsen with a virtual box of long-forgotten clothing renders from around the web, from Nike Air Max to golf bags. Madsen sketched designs, which were brought to life by Berlin-based design studio Selam X (who previously created Dazed Beauty’s algorithmic launch cover featuring Kylie Jenner).

Hettie Judah interviews artist Alison Lloyd who created new work exclusively for this issue. Zowie Broach writes an exclusive manifesto on behalf of her MA fashion students at The Royal College of Art.

Fucking Young! Spring/Summer 2020

Hollywood actor and amateur skateboarder, Jack Dylan Grazer fronts our Spring/Summer 2020 Olympic Issue shot by Kapturing in 2028 Olympic host city of Los Angeles. While 16-year-old Grazer empowers kids to go out and claim their own piece to skate on, the Olympics can also connect to fond childhood memories.  We also look at it for inspiration and a call for togetherness.

Participation in sports has been greatly limited and the future has been up in the air much like fashion, both have been great escapes, but now reality is kicking in. People are recycling more, gaining scruples, and ultimately opting for a healthier and more ethical lifestyle. The connection between streetwear and sports culture has been undeniable. Now we are given one more year as the 2020 Tokyo Olympics have been postponed by a full year due to the Covid-19 pandemic, can fashion and sports make the appropriate changes to ensure that health and the environment come first?

Olympic legends Michael Johnson and Li Ning shed some gold light on us along with interviews with designers Matthew Williams, Stéphane Ashpool, Andreas Schmidl, and Josef Lazo of Lazoschmidl and essay by Harris Reed.

Editorials from: Amar, Arne Grugel, Asaf Einy, David Ansah, Guillaume Plas, Kapturing, Sebastien Pielles, Simon, Tom Kneller, and Valentin Fabre.

System – Issue 15

System launches its biggest-ever issue on July 1st. Produced entirely in Covid-19 lockdown, over 50 days between April and May, the 500-page issue is a Warholian time capsule of a period that already feels strangely distant and frozen in memory.

Featuring 35 different covers – all photographed by Juergen Teller – presenting the many participants in a quarantine conversation series entitled ‘What do we talk about?’. The Zoom conversations see a broad range of fashion designers connecting with friends, colleagues, heroes and other designers to reflect on life in lockdown and their collective future in fashion.

Wonderland Summer 2020 Issue

Covering Wonderland’s Summer 2020 issue is breakout actor Paul Mescal, who talks through his role as Connell in the screen adaptation of Salley Rooney’s Normal People, the pressures and privilege of taking on a well-loved character and the cultural impact of the show. Alongside Mescal, the issue includes features with actors Indya Moore and Maisie Williams, music artists SZA and Princess Nokia, and others making waves across the creative industries including Maya Hawke, Dove Cameron, Evan Mock and Rafferty Law. With many of the images created in self-isolation at home, this issue celebrates the creativity and imagination of each talent involved, spotlighting individuals who are sharing their experiences of the world and shaping a new one with their art.

Three young men grace the cover of issue 26, the first being Kelvin Harrison Jr., the up-and-coming actor from New Orleans with roles in 12 Years a Slave, It Comes At Night and Waves. Talking to Anna Smith, he discusses working with his idols, a tireless work ethic and the changing shape of masculinity.

Second, we have Belgian rapper Baloji, an artist in perpetual motion. His albums – including the sweeping, psychedelic 2018 LP 137 Avenue Kaniama – have established him as a star in France and Belgium, and gradually crossed over to English-speaking audiences. The musician of Congolese origin reflects on his career– past, present and future – with Aimee Cliff.

Our third split cover features actor Earl Cave – son of Nick Cave and The Vampire’s Wife designer Susie Bick – hot off the heels of playing Ned Kelly’s younger brother, and fellow gang member, in Justin Kurzel’s visceral drama True History of the Kelly Gang. He talks with Claire Marie Healy about coming out from the shadows of rock and fashion royalty to forge his own creative path.

Elsewhere, Shadow Justice Secretary and Labour MP David Lammy muses on empire, emerging tribes and our need for community, legendary Japanese musician Ryuichi Sakamoto shares his thoughts on his latest soundtrack for The Staggering Girl, William T. Vollmann examines San Francisco’s BDSM community and the ties that bind it, while Deyan Sudjic profiles the multifaceted designer Martino Gamper. Looking good has also taken us all around the world, with fashion stories coming from Cyprus, the Barbican, New York City and Brazil, to name a few. 

In our Commentary, we have two short stories from Booker Prize longlisted writer Sophie Mackintosh and Irish novelist Naoise Dolan, an essay on the support of creativity by translator Jen Calleja, the opening pages of the award-winning Winter in Sokcho (Hiver à Sokcho) by Elisa Shua Dusapin, as well as a mysterious photomontage from artist Katrien De Blauwer.

Finally, in the Porter, Caleb Landry Jones explores his new album, Tomos Parry shares the beauty of cooking fresh fish on an open fire, photographer Tobias Harvey visits the rugged Faroe Islands, Matthew Turner celebrates Richard Hollis’ design work for London’s Whitechapel Gallery and Jacob Charles Wilson meets writing mentor and protégé Colm Tóibín and Collin Barrett.

Issue 11 – Fall/Winter 2019

Last March, office celebrated five years in the industry with an unprecedented anniversary issue that featured ten unique covers. This Fall, the magazine is back with its eleventh issue, and a brand new newsstand in the heart of LA.

Chinese artist Cai Guo-Qiang invited the magazine, and photographer Dexter Navy, into his studio to watch him create his explosive work; and Alex Lockett teamed up with Jersey rapper and Kanye West protege 070 Shake and her girlfriend, Sophia Diana Lodato.

Harris. Artist Andrea Mary Marshall looks into the secret world of The Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, a controversial Mormon sect, interviewing a former member, Sarah Allred, who escaped the group, and photographing herself in their traditional garments. There’s also an unedited (and utterly fabulous) discussion between Luar designer Raul Lopez and former Hood By Air fashion
director Paul Cupo. In addition, Swiss artist Pamela Rosenkranz invited writer Shumon Basar into her world of robotic biomimicry, and curator Noah Khosbhin organized a range of works by Mexican-born artist and tattooist Dr. Lakra, while photographer Gogy Esparza took in the wild costumes (and personalities) of the Notting Hill Carnival.

Office Beauty sees an interview with legendary hair stylist Eugene Souleiman, and a glitter-filled editorial by Blommers & Schumm.
