ALTERNATIVES IN PRINT: SOME/THINGS

Some/Things Magazine is a bit of a gem, the kind of publication you only come across once every few years, and then don’t want to tell your friends about, because you want it all for yourself. But since we’re all about kindness this month, we will share it with you.
Some/Things is a lush and luxurious [...]

LIGHTSCAPES

Much talk has been made of art and fashion in these past few years, mostly in a superficial and unsatisfying way. More sense makes a recent collaboration by Belgian fashion designer Dries van Noten, cover star of our issue #20, and photographer James Reeve: when van Noten discovered Reeve’s beautiful Lightscapes, a series of night [...]

STORE OF THE MONTH: VOO / BERLIN

It was only a matter of time that Berlin’s Kreuzberg district would get its own proper fashion store. Lucky for us, it happened to be Voo, which has its own particular style of fashion, magazines, decent coffee and understatement that blends in perfectly with our favourite area. A great selection of designers including Henrik Vibskov, [...]

MONO.CONTRIBUTORS #03: ADRIANO SACK

Anyone who has indulged in our still current issue #28 with Bless will have noticed that the interview is radically different to our regular approach, with Bless asking almost as many questions to our interviewer Adriano Sack as they give answers.

POSES

Ah, fashion photography, that curious beast. So seductive and so utterly ridiculous when exposed for what it really is – as in Spanish artist Yolanda Dominguez’ great new series Poses, where she confronted archetypes of fashion imagery with real life, or the other way around. Find out more in a little interview with her on [...]

ALL ABOUT THE SEASONS

Winter and summer park bridges and a season change dress – the theme is present in nearly all of Anouk Vogel’s designs who’s a landscape architect born in Switzerland. The dress was created in collaboration with fashion designer Mattijs van Bergen and is made of bicycle inner tubes that function as vases.

SEASON CHANGE
Commissioned by the Architecture [...]
