A Magazine Curated By

A Magazine Curated By is a fashion magazine that explores the universe of a chosen fashion designer in each issue.
Founded in Antwerp in 2001, A Magazine invites a guest curator – an international fashion designer, group or house – 
to develop innovative, personalised content to express their aesthetic and cultural values in a unique, collectible document.
Each issue celebrates this designer's ethos: their people, their passion, their stories, emotions, fascinations, spontaneity and authenticity.

Every A Magazine Curated By is a new story waiting to be told.

N27 A Magazine Curated By Glenn Martens

A Publisher is pleased to announce that the 27th issue of A MAGAZINE curated by has been curated by Paris-based Belgian designer, GLENN MARTENS, creative director of both Diesel and Y/Project. With A MAGAZINE curated by celebrating its 20th anniversary this year, the publication is excited to be returning to its Belgian roots.

Martens’ work is steeped in gothic imagery taken from the Flemish masters, often reworked through a contemporary digitally-informed lens. This juxtaposition plays a central role in his issue, balancing the historical with the now. A substantial portfolio shot in Martens’ hometown of Bruges plays on this theme; Photographer Arnaud Lajeunie and stylist Ursina Gysi photographed 10 years of Y/Project on iconic Belgian models like Anouck Lepere, Delphine Bafort, Kim Peers, Anne-Catherine Lacroix and Roos Van Bosstraeten throughout the medieval city.

The fascination of a muse, in this case the Pre-Raphaelite artist Elizabeth Siddal, is dissected in an essay by Nicole DeMarco, exploring how all redhead muses of history might owe their it-girl statuses to Siddal. The longest extensions made by hair artist Cyndia Harvey is photographed in a series of images by Jordan Hemingway and stylist Robbie Spencer inspired by women like Siddal with fashion by Diesel, Y/Project and Jean Paul Gaultier Couture. Turning the idea on its head, in a series of self-portraits Sharok, the Iranian-American adult performer, takes his agency back in a discussion about the self and representation.

A continuation of this contemplation, Paul Kooiker photographs a longtime muse, using clay and forms to play with the shape of the body. The sitter becomes sculpture.

Similarly, a carte blache beauty series by makeup artist Inge Grognard and photographer Zhong Lin turns face into the canvas of artwork — with the striking cover image of A MAGAZINE curated by GLENN MARTENS being taken from this series.

Extending the mind to architecture, Michelle Deng of OMA and Michael Abel of ANY NYC ponder the relationship between faith and the human need to build churches and chapels that push the limits of our connection to faith.

And lastly off of his Whitney Museum solo show last year, artist Josh Kline explores Diesel’s denim fashion designed by Martens. As the most ‘American’ of fabrics, Kline dissolves the American media landscape using technology like deepfake and AI tools to create the familiar with the unfamiliar in his first-ever fashion story.

Contributors include: Arnaud Lajeunie, Cyndia Harvey, Fredrik Nielsen, Inge Grognard, Jordan Hemingway, Josh Kline, Kacper Kasprzyk, Kristien Hanselaer, Lars Byrresen Petersen, Michael Abel, Michelle Deng, Mohawkamania Bob & Julie Bagnall, Paul Kooiker, Senjan Jansen, Sharok, Silvia Prada, Ursina Gysi, Zhong Lin.

N26 A Magazine Curated By Peter Do

A Publisher is pleased to announce that the 26th issue of A MAGAZINE curated by has been curated by Peter Do. The young Vietnamese-American designer established his eponymous line in 2018 and was named Creative Director of Helmut Lang earlier this year. Do has called upon his inner circle of friends, family and artistic collaborators to contribute cultural and creative content across the 200 page magazine. 

The issue explores the idea of home, from his childhood in Biên Hòa, Vietnam to living in New York, rooted in the memories held of different places, people, objects and how one remembers. It is Do’s most intimate project to date, inviting readers to understand the internal narratives of the shy designer.  

Minds from the Vietnamese diaspora, including poet and writer Ocean Vuong and Pulitzer Prize winner Viet Thanh Nguyen lend their voice to the issue, while artist Anh Duong and art historian Nicolas Henni-Trinh Duc reflect upon the cultural heritage between East and West. Oscar nominee and cult director Trần Anh Hùng directs a series captured at wet markets in Ho Chi Minh City, alongside recipes handed down through relatives of chef Trisha Do, one of Peter’s closest friends. Historical artefacts from the Guimet Museum photographed by Nhu Xuan Hua and contextualised by curator Chuong-Đài Võ join a sweeping portfolio by Vân-Nhi Nguyễn, photographed in Biên Hòa, bringing his design full circle to places of his childhood past. 

The sensory mechanisms of memory are rendered through the absence of sound, with a personal essay by New York Times bestselling author Mary HK Choi accompanied with archival imagery by Mark Borthwick. Scent is also highlighted in a photographic essay by artistic duo Hart Lëshkina, whilst the tactility of technology is captured through a double exposé by Matthieu Lavanchy and Simon Heger Knudsen.  

The cover of A MAGAZINE curated by Peter Do stays true to Do’s appreciation and fascination of craft, featuring black embroidery that juxtaposes the functional details printed in silver Pantone found throughout the book. The document is an extension of Do’s precise hand and cultivated eye, a personal notebook that indexes formative memories and lasting relationships he holds dear. 

Contributors include: Anh Duong, Bảo Nguyễn, Brenda Weischer, Chương-Đài Võ, Hart Lëshkina, Huy Lương, Joanna Yi, Mark Borthwick, Mary HK Choi, Matthieu Lavanchy, Newt Nguyen, Nhu Xuan Hua, Nicolas Henni-Trinh Duc, Ocean Vương, Sarah Park, Sergiy Barchuk, Simon Heger Knudsen, Trần Anh Dũng, Trần Anh Hùng, Trisha Đỗ, Vân-Nhi Nguyễn, Viet Thanh Nguyen.

N25 A Magazine Curated By sacai

The 25th issue of A Magazine Curated By has been guest edited by Chitose Abe of sacai.

As the first Japanese woman to curate an issue, Abe has called upon her inner circle of friends, family and artistic collaborators to contribute cultural and creative content across the 200 page magazine.

Proposing a radical ultramarine blue cover with both English and Japanese text, A Magazine Curated By Sacai explores the world of community and high concept behind sacai, from an international series of #sacaiTHEpeople portraits from Tokyo to LA, to commissioned projects by photographers, chefs, industrial designers, architects, artists, writers and business analysts alike.

From the material concerns of minimalist architecture and upcycled industrial design to the intangible possibilities of CGI products and A.I. fashion reporting, Abe has channelled sacai’s collaborative spirit into a profoundly contemporary document that approaches her brand pillars of hybridity and ‘stability and betrayal’ in myriad ways.

Selected contributors include: 

Chikashi Suzuki, Craig Mcdean, Daisuke Gemma, Daniel Arnold, Dr Woo, Edison Chen, Gelchop, Ghetto Gastro, Hank Willis Thomas, Hans Ulrich Obrist, Jack Pierson, Jean Touitou, Joaquin Laguinge, Karl Templer, Katsu Naito, Keith Oshiro, Kohei Kawatani, Lawrence Weiner, Marvin Leuvrey, Michel Gaubert, Noua Unu Studio, Pablo Zuleto Zahr, Piczo, Rashida Jones, Rollswyze, Rory Van Millingen, Sarah Andelman, Shioli Kutsuna, Shupei Qin, Sou Fujimoto, Takashi Homma, Tariq ‘Black thought’ Trotter, The D Soraki, Toraya, Vince Aung, Yoshi Tsujimura, Yoshihiro Narisawa, Yosuke Kubozuka, Yusuke Seki.

N24 A Magazine Curated By Erdem

A Magazine Curated By Erdem is a cross-cultural, time-travelling exploration of Erdem's diverse range of sociological and aesthetic references that centres on the disruptive figures of crucial periods in our collective history. Throughout the issue, game-changing figures from gender-bending Edwardian aristocrats to creative wunderkinds meet the gaze of contemporary image-makers from across the globe.

As a non-identical twin, Erdem reflects upon the themes of duality and mirroring, deconstructing the notion of twinning and the fluidity of gender in his exploration of Orlando by Virginia Woolf and the 1993 film by Sally Potter. Erdem’s deeply personal dedication to the project can be witnessed throughout, with a series of interviews with Glenn Close, Roni Horn, Tim Blanks and Sally Potter, as well as two photographic series conducted by the designer himself — one feature close friends, family, and muses while the other features principal dancers and artists from the Royal Ballet.

An arresting cyanotype study of the tulip by creative director Thomas Persson and photographer Annemarieke van Drimmelen is the subject of a limited-edition gloss photo print insert found in each magazine. Bursting with colour and life, A Magazine Curated By Erdem is a swirling celebration of fashion, photography, modern and contemporary painting, arthouse cinema, music and queer pop culture as seen from Erdem’s sophisticated, witty point of view.

Selected contributors include: Anj Smith, Amanda Harlech, Anne Collier, Bruce LaBruce, Campbell Addy, Charlie Porter, Christopher Kane, Cindy Sherman, Ethan James Green, Glenn Close, Guinevere Van Seenus, Guy Bourdin, Kaye Donachie, James Righton, Michael Stipe, Nicholas Cullinan, Patrick Procktor, Pet Shop Boys, Sally Potter, Sarah Mower, Roni Horn, Tim Blanks, Trinity Ellis, William Waterworth & many more.

N23 A Magazine Curated By Francesco Risso

A Magazine Curated By is pleased to announce that the 23rd issue has been curated by Francesco Risso, the creative director of the Italian fashion house Marni. 

Drawing upon an intimate and diverse community of artists, musicians, writers, photographers, family and friends, A Magazine Curated By Francesco Risso is an analogue exploration of the print object through a myriad of visual and philosophical stimuli that question contemporary notions of living. 

Divided into 20 distinct contributions across 240 pages, the issue is conceived as a compilation of scrapbooks - each a conceptual window into the minds and hearts of a protagonist or protagonists that offers a glimpse into their creative process or journey. Opening with a painted portrait, each chapter is unique, featuring a plethora of lo-fi techniques from handwritten and mechanically typed pages to paper collages, illustration, painting, doodling and hand-retouched photography. 

The playful cover mimics a red vintage scrapbook, combining multiple finishing techniques including a trompe l’œil embossed ‘tape’ spine, embossed ‘A’ and spot varnished portrait of Francesco Risso himself. 

The issue is a scrapbook that documents the boundless imagination of Risso, one that possesses a playful yet profound view of materiality, nature and the human spirit. A sense of liberation is perceivable throughout A#23, from Sergio Cattivelli’s photographic series of the designer himself role-playing a myriad of characters, Michele Rizzo’s sculpture of endless lifetimes carved from clay and even memories of a debaucherous weekend with motorbikers captured on film by Francesca Sorrenti. Twenty-one original portraits consecrate each contributor, bound together in a single publication that showcases the colourful whimsy of Francesco Risso and the graphic, colourful world of Marni. 

Each issue contains a single artist print by Dorothy Sing Zhang, featuring Francesco Risso’s Weimaraner George stealing a Marni sock and mushroom omelette from his kitchen table in Milan. 

Selected contributors include: Andrea Artemisio, Babak Radboy, Camilla Nickerson, Charlie Fox, Cosmo & Merlin Sheldrake, Dan Colen, Dev Hynes, Dorothy Sing Zhang, Flaminia Veronesi, Francesca Sorrenti, Jamie Hawkesworth, Jonah Hill, Jordan Hemingway, Julien d'Ys, Lexie Smith, Lola Montes, Michele Rizzo, Rachel Chandler, Sara Moonves, Sophie von Hellermann, Terraforma and Wilfrid Wood.

N1reprint A Magazine Curated By Maison Martin Margiela

A Publisher presents a limited-edition reprint of A Magazine Curated By Maison Martin Margiela (2004). Nearly two decades after its original release, this edition acknowledges the seasonless, timeless nature of A Magazine.
A collectible object in the realm of printed matter, it is a testament to the ongoing relevance of the founding ideals of the Maison Martin Margiela: from the deconstruction of garment-making and the disruption of classical ideals in photography, to such phenomena as street casting, unconventional beauty, subversive communication, and a Dadaist approach to the very concept of fashion and object design.

 
The 2021 reprint is an identical reprint of the original magazine with matched paper stock and cover treatments, with all original content preserved from cover to cover. The back cover features a short descriptive blurb by the current editorial team.
 
Selected contributors include: Åbäke, Kanako B. Koga, Bless, Mark Borthwick, Roxane Danset, Kristina De Coninck, Anders Edström, Marina Faust, Inge Grognard, Jacques Habbah, Jonathan Hallam, Katerina Jebb, Tatsuya Kitayama, Ali Mahdavi, Laurent Mercier, Lutz Huelle, Sébastien Meunier, Dorothee Perret, Ola Rindal, Violeta Sanchez, Patrick Scallon, Nigel Scott, Ronald Stoops, Kyoichi Tsuzuki, Bob Verhelst.
 
Each issue contains 1 of 6 archival images from the following photographers which have been issued as 240 x 180mm unsigned prints: Mark Borthwick, Anders Edström, Marina Faust, Jonathan Hallam, Ola Rindal and Ronald Stoops. A charitable donation to Sea Watch and RIACE France has been made in their name, reflecting the commitment of A Publisher to the cause of migrants and refugees in the Mediterranean Sea, and their integration into the European community.
 
(Please Note: Each issue contains a single print placed at random, in the spirit of the Maison Martin Margiela. The cover wrap does not indicate which print is inside.)

A magazine Curated By Lucie And Luke Meier

A Magazine Curated By

A magazine Curated By Lucie And Luke Meier

The 21st issue of A Magazine has been curated by Lucie and Luke Meier, the co-creative directors of Jil Sander. The Meiers approached their ‘carte blanche’ project for A Magazine as a call for reflection and an open dialogue on the dualities of the one theme that is present in all of their work – HUMAN NATURE / MOTHER NATURE.

A potent juxtaposition of the natural world with the constructs of built architecture and human cultural phenomena within recent history forms the basis of this document. Breathtaking landscapes are intertwined throughout, with arresting scenes of fragile beauty captured on both a micro and macro scale. The geographic culmination of the Meiers’ lives and careers is presented with stories from the Canadian wilderness to the Swiss Alps, passing through the streets of Paris and Florence, and the work spaces of artists across Europe and the United States. Personal contributions abound, with reflections on the theme offered through photography and painting, illustration, interviews, music and poetry, as well as essays deconstructing liberal arts education at Black Mountain College and sustainability in fashion today.

Historical works from the Meiers’ distinct canon of modern art favourites are juxtaposed with new imagery from a host of new and established names in photography across 200 pages arranged in the form of visual ‘plates’ in the tradition of art book publishing, with the issue’s text component appearing as a ‘legend’ to close the magazine. A keen emphasis on family sees many projects executed by teams consisting of husbands, wives, brothers and sisters, as well as drawings by children from the Meiers’ extended family and friends.

A Magazine #21 is offset-printed on Lenza recycled paper made in Italy, featuring a 3D-scanned cover replicating a Japanese floral washi paper handmade in the hills of the Noto peninsula by a 3rd generation paper maker. The issue is stitch-bound with an invisible spine and printed in the Aosta region of northern Italy. Inspired by the Swiss franc coin, a unique font typeface entitled ‘Meier’ designed by Buero Paris has been incorporated into the issue.

N20 A Magazine Curated By Pierpaolo Piccioli

A Magazine Curated By

N20 A Magazine Curated By Pierpaolo Piccioli

A Magazine Curated By and Valentino are delighted to announce that issue N°20 has been curated by Pierpaolo Piccioli for an international release on December 3rd, 2019. Based in Rome, the Italian fashion designer was named the sole Artistic Director at Valentino in July 2016, after having first worked under Mr. Valentino in 1999 and maintaining a long working relationship with the house ever since. Piccioli is known for re-awakening the extravagant spirit of haute couture in fashion, with his use of bright colour and grand volumes contrasted by his willful advocation of fashion as a conduit for optimism, diversity and inclusivity.

 

Pierpaolo Piccioli’s issue of A Magazine Curated By contains a multitude of messages centered around the exploration of the city of Rome and its dualities. Approached as a longform visual essay, the magazine unfolds from a still-life shoot by Joel Meyerowitz of Pierpaolo’s secret cahiers des défilés, his ‘mood books’ that underline each fashion show and contain everything from their initial inspirations to the end result of the fashion show’s imagery and ephemera. From this key starting point, a diarized visual portfolio by Charles H. Traub – known for his iconic series’ ‘Lunchtime’ on the streets of New York City and ‘Dolce Via’ across Italy in the 1980s – takes place in chapters, documenting many of Pierpaolo’s favourite places in Rome from the Spanish steps to Trastevere and the Palatine hill. The series features a host of characters from near and far, including the models Leslye Houenou, Hannelore Knuts, and Aurora Talarico, the Principessa Nicoletta Odescalchi, the actress Alba Rohrwacher, Pierpaolo’s wife Simona and daughter Benedetta, and many more. Paintings from the Italian renaissance and the work of Hieronymus Bosch are scattered throughout the magazine’s pages, countering Pierpaolo’s contemporary vision with his classical inspirations, including a rarely seen Caravaggio painting restored by Studio Merlini Storti Restauri at the Palazzo Odescalchi in Rome.

 

Closing the magazine, a 48-page portrait series photographed by Pierpaolo Piccioli himself is situated as a tribute to Franca Sozzani and an homage to Steven Meisel’s iconic Vogue Italia October 1992 photo shoot, in which Meisel captured a multitude of international personalities wearing his signature trapper hat and holding their handwritten name card. Swapping black and white for dazzling colour, and the black hat for Philip Treacy’s now-iconic pink hat for Valentino, Pierpaolo hand-picked a cast of family, friends, Valentino artisans and international celebrities to pose for him, including Naomi Campbell, Mariacarla Boscono, British Vogue’s Edward Enninful, Pat McGrath, Guido Palau, and the original series’ stylist Joe McKenna. His closing subject, the actress Frances McDormand, appears on the magazine’s cover in a green Haute Couture sequin cape. The cover’s black cloth effect and red stripe are a nod to Pierpaolo’s cahiers des défilés, embossed with a ‘P.P’ stamp as a subtle nod to Pier Paolo Pasolini.

 

Extending the A Magazine Curated By spirit of ‘carte blanche’ creative freedom, Pierpaolo’s issue contains a special DIY project, an invitation extended to the designers Craig Green, Marc Jacobs, Undercover founder Jun Takahashi, and Givenchy creative director Clare Waight Keller. Each designer was sent a roll of Valentino red haute couture silk and a packet of Valentino studs along with a note from Pierpaolo to interpret the Valentino house codes in their own way, the results being a dynamic collection of objects including a teddy bear, a corsage bow, a bustier dress and a family of stuffed sculptures. Other features include an intimate glimpse inside Pierpaolo’s Nettuno home by Lorenzo Castore, texts by Francesco Bonami and Luigi Ballerini, musical collages by Gwenaël Rattke, a tribute to costume designer Piero Tosi by Bruce Weber, stills from the short film The Staggering Girl by Luca Guadagnino, and a never-before-seen snapshot of Mr. Valentino’s 1966 Haute Couture show in Rome photographed and written by Paolo di Paolo.

N19 A Magazine Curated by Kim Jones

A Magazine Curated By is delighted to announce that issue N°19 has been curated by Kim Jones for an international release on May 29th, 2019. Based between London and Paris, the British fashion designer was named men’s creative director at Dior in March 2018, after seven years designing menswear at Louis Vuitton. Jones is known for his adventurous travelling spirit and a penchant for collecting rare and precious objects and vintage fashion, all of which informs his designs that marry futurism with old-world techniques and materials. 

Kim Jones’ approach to A Magazine Curated By N°19 takes the form of an alphabet, introducing his eclectic group of friends and exploring his worldly passions, with subjects ranging from ‘A’ for Naomi Campbell’s ‘Africa’ through ‘P’ for punk, all the way to ‘Z’ for Amanda Lear’s ‘Zero’ (“the zero you will get if you don’t learn my alphabet”). The designer's alphabet is represented in 26 artist ‘letter’ pages featuring the works of friends and collaborators, from contemporary artists such as KAWS, Hajime Sorayama, Takashi Murakami, Raymond Pettibon and Peter Doig, as well as Dior house milliner Stephen Jones, R.E.M.’s Michael Stipe, and Louis Vuitton men’s creative director Virgil Abloh. Each letter is followed by an adjoining subject matter, ranging from essays and archive image portfolios to interviews, illustrations, poetry, postcards, still-life photography, music playlists and portraiture. Close friends and famous heroes unite in this dense patchwork of anthropological and geographical references that reveal many facets of Jones’ curious mind. 

A Magazine Curated by Kim Jones features two covers featuring models Ludwig Wilsdorff and Sakua Kambong photographed by David Vasiljevic under the creative direction of Dior Make up creative director Peter Philips. The 26 artist letters are also compiled on a detachable sticker page inside the magazine. The issue premieres a new Eco Foil metallic ink technique on the cover and interior pages.

A Magazine Curated by Kim Jones features two covers featuring models Ludwig Wilsdorff and Sakua Kambong photographed by David Vasiljevic under the creative direction of Dior Make up creative director Peter Philips. The 26 artist letters are also compiled on a detachable sticker page inside the magazine. The issue premieres a new Eco Foil metallic ink technique on the cover and interior pages.

A Magazine Curated By 
is delighted to announce that the 18th issue has been curated by the London-based fashion designer Simone Rocha. Simone’s sensitive, intellectual approach to fashion is marked by an intimate, unfiltered vision of contemporary femininity with all its twists and turns, a fact that imbues her collections with a unique (yet inclusive) point of view. Simone has called upon an international cast of friends, family, and creative collaborators whose regard stretches above and beyond her chosen subject matter to paint a broad picture of our postmodern human condition – celebrating nostalgia whilst remaining firmly rooted in the present. In a determined effort to cross-pollinate Simone’s disparate cultures within the pages of the magazine, a diverse cast of contributors emerges.

A N°18 Contributors include:

Ben Toms, Broomberg & Chanarin, Chimamanda Ngozie Adichie, Colin Dodgson, Donal Ryan, Dorothy Cross, Eoin McLoughlin, Feng Li, Jacob Lillis, Jamie Hawksworth, Jenny Holzer, Leslie Zhang, Linda Brownlee, Lou Stoppard, Louise Bourgeois, Malina Joseph Gilchrist, Mary Robinson, Max Rocha, Niall O'Brien, Odette Rocha, Perry Ogden, Petra Collins, Ren Ri, Richard Mosse, Robbie Spencer, Roni Horn, Ruth Rogers, Sam Rock, Sarah Moon, Seamus Heaney, Stephanie Hegarty, Thurstan Redding, Tyler Mitchell.

N17 A Magazine Curated By Eckhaus Latta

This 17th edition of A Magazine Curated By is a comprehensive immersion into the artistic universe of Eckhaus Latta anchored by the core conceptual twist of parody – satirizing the tropes of a fashion magazine and in particular the longstanding tradition of a ‘September issue’. Eckhaus Latta’s avant-garde approach to fashion is brought to light through its adoption and subsequent subversion of existing structures, whilst acknowledging the label’s place in America’s contemporary art scene today. Across two hundred pages, Eckhaus Latta have enlisted a multitude of talents to approach their own work and the fashion industry through both scrutiny and celebration. 


Contributors include: Anders Edstrom, Anicka Yi, Camille Bidault-Waddington, Chris Kraus, Haley Wollens, Michael Bailey-Gates, Roberta Smith, Roe Ethridge, Sharif Hamza, Susan Cianciolo, Zoe Ghertner and many more.

N16 A Magazine Curated By Alessandro Michele

A Magazine Curated By is delighted to announce that the 16th edition of A Magazine Curated By has been guest edited by Gucci’s Creative Director Alessandro Michele, for a worldwide release in November 2016.

 This landmark issue of A Magazine unfolds over 280 pages of exclusive content developed by Alessandro Michele, preserving the ‘carte blanche’ free-reign concept devised by Walter Van Beirendonck in 2001. An unprecedented cast of international contributors were invited to express their creative perspective on a theme dear to Michele’s heart; each were offered the words ‘blind for love’ as the starting point for over forty distinct narratives that unfold throughout.

THOM BROWNE

A Magazine Curated By
is delighted to announce that American designer Thom Browne has curated the Spring Summer 2016 issue for a worldwide release this March.

Following Rodarte and Proenza Schouler, Browne is the third American designer to take part in the A Magazine project, which offers carte blanche to a fashion designer to open their universe across 200 pages of creative content. He is the first menswear designer to curate A Magazine since Riccardo Tisci in 2008.

Browne has tipped a both prestigious and personal cast of contributors for the issue, calling on members of staff, his partner and close friends to collaborate as well as a host of international artists and personalities including Baz Luhrmann, Martha Stewart, Rick Owens, and Hans Ulrich Obrist.

The magazine’s content is united under the theme of ‘Death and Mourning in Black and White’, following the progression of Browne’s runway shows since January 2015 until today. The entire magazine has been printed in black and white – its only touch of colour provided by Browne’s iconic red, white and blue grosgrain ribbon employed as a bookmark.

DELFINA DELETTREZ

This landmark issue represents the first A Magazine curated by an Italian woman and the first to explore the decorative realm of a jewellery designer, after the magazine’s longstanding relationship with prét-à-porter designers was first diverted in 2013 by the curation of British milliner Stephen Jones.

Delfina has chosen the abstract theme of ‘gold’, tipping an international array of artists, designers, photographers, stylists, architects, philosophers and other creative minds to interpret a myriad of aesthetic, alchemical and metaphysical representations of this precious metal and its intrinsic energy.

Contributors to this golden issue include Almine Rech, Amanda Harlech, Daniel Sannwald, Francesco Vezzoli, Jerry Stafford, Silvia Fendi, Karl Lagerfeld, Katerina Jebb,

Rafael de Cardenas, Patrick Kinmonth, Luca Guadagnino, Robbie Spencer, Matthew Stone, Katie Shillingford, Shala Monroque, Stanislas Klossowski de Rola, Nico Vascellari, Marc Quinn, Olafur Eliasson & many more.

IRIS VAN HERPEN

“Inspiration is a matter of sensitivity. It is the ability to collect from the past, present and future as they shift past us simultaneously. In this issue of A Magazine I want to affirm the importance of alliance and fraternisation, to transgress the experiential boundaries of those versatile relationships that are the catalysts for true inspiration.” – Iris van Herpen, 2014.

STEPHEN JONES

Inviting generations of British and continental talent to express his universe not only through their eyes but through their hands, the British milliner Stephen Jones has dedicated his issue of A Magazine Curated By to Anna Piaggi and the art of illustration. Stephen’s issue delves into the worlds of drawing and design in a kaleidoscopic oeuvre filled with archival and newly commissioned works from artists and designers, students, teachers, curators, performers, academics, a tattooist and a manicurist – all of whom are first and foremost his very good friends.

From a titillating centerfold with Dita Von Teese by David Downton to Nick Knight’s floral christmas cards and the industrial designs of Zaha Hadid, Raf Simons or Ron Arad, A#12 approaches illustration from many perspectives. You will find the process sketches of designers from Marc Jacobs to Thierry Mugler alongside student works and the musings of fashion curators Olivier Saillard and Valerie Steele, as well as works from the crème de la crème of fashion illustration from Gladys Perint Palmer to Howard Tangye, Barbara Hulanicki and Tony Viramontes.

A Magazine Curated By Stephen Jones invites you to look through the page and down the rabbit hole with the mad hatter – in an elegant whirl of colour, line, creativity and humour.

PROENZA SCHOULER

What is so special, and so unexpected, is that Lazaro Hernandez and Jack McCollough have chosen to take their American-ness, this national designation, as an asset, a resource, something that does not dictate their identity as designers but instead enhances it. Like the land artists they so admire, they are looking at their country with resourceful, refined eyes. And they know that fashion is, of course, an incursion onto a landscape, sometimes transient, sometimes permanent, and that the mere truth of that carries with it enormous responsibility and glorious opportunity. Read on.

RICCARDO TISCI

DARKNESS | EXTREMES | RAW | RELIGION | ROMANTICISM | SENSUALITY | STREET

are words that best describe Riccardo Tisci, creative director of Givenchy. With these words, he approached artists, art directors, editors, friends, models, muses, performers and photographers, and invited them to participate in this issue of A MAGAZINE.

Most of the pieces you will discover within these pages were specially commissioned by Riccardo, others are much-loved sources of inspiration that he wanted to share with the readers.

Riccardo is like a volcano, with thousands of ideas flooding out of his brain, leaving you with an extra-ordinary breathless feeling. Though he is naturally a very talkative person he wanted this issue to be full of images. Visions with no explanation, no text, just the artwork to be interpreted freely by each of you. 

So, nor more words, just the pure joy of turning the pages and submerging yourself in Riccardo's world.

N7 A Magazine Curated By Kris Van Assche

KRIS VAN ASSCHE

On the threshold of his 31st birthday Kris Van Assche was appointed artistic director at Dior Homme. In January 2008 he presented his first catwalk show for Dior, an emotionally charged moment and a milestone in the career of this young designer. Amidst the turbulent preparations for the show and the presentation of his own label's men's and women's lines, we invited Kris Van Assche to be our guest curator of A MAGAZINE #7.

Already in our early conversations it became clear that Kris wanted to work with people he felt connected to. He didn't want to opt for big names, but rather for the people that fascinate him or those whose creative input had inspired and enriched him in the past.

The various collaborations with photographers, authors, stylists and models in A MAGAZINE #7 are the result of Kris' search for true human contact within the creative process.

VERONIQUE BRANQUINHO

Graduated in 1995 from the renowned fashion department of the Antwerp Academy, Veronique Branquinho presents collections under her own name in Paris since 1997. Today, besides a women’s collection, her label also includes a men’s collection, and a shoe collection.
In the late 1990s, Veronique Branquinho took the international scene by storm with a very personal take on femininity and elegance, her signature strongly influenced by the complexity of the female character. Underpinned by subtle references to film, music and art, her fashion offers an alternative to the big luxury brands. Her collections are favoured by men and women who appreciate high quality clothes with a traditional finishing, in superior fabrics.

The theme of female duality, the transition from girl to woman, the ambiguous mystery of the awakening eroticism, takes centre stage in Veronique Branquinho’s oeuvre. Her work is dominated by the perpetual movement between attracting and rejecting, revealing and concealing… For A MAGAZINE, Veronique Branquinho will create a ‘warm, personal and masculine’ issue, a precious and elegant edition offering a unique view on her world and her work, her passions and sources of inspiration.

N°5, a mythical number in the fashion world if ever there was one. For our very own #5, we have invited our first female guest curator: Martine Sitbon. From its very cover it radiates a woman’s point of view, the choice to be both seductive and witty. Martine is the perfect mix of Lewis Carroll’s fantasy and Blondie’s energy, and that is exactly what we have tried to bring to this issue.

N3 A Magazine Curated By Haider Ackermann

HAIDER ACKERMANN

A warm smile, ever questioning eyes, your fragile hands. Time and time again they combine and seduce with their elegance and intensity. 
We haven't seen each other much in the past few months. Enough though to guess who you are. We sat at the table together. Listened to each other. Sometimes you were very happy. Sometimes severe, when it seemed that we wouldn't be able to realize a story as we had imagined it. Sometimes very sad. Like when Michael Haneke didn't answer our pleas. 
You are always apparently calm. No raising of the voice, no big gestures. Only that running of your hands through your hair. That's when, so you told me, a storm is ravaging within you. Your heart is pounding, your bones are in shock and your nervous system is under attack. Only for a moment. Because when fear strikes, you wait patiently. With averted eyes you remain soft and beautiful. Reserved. Always elegant. 
Intense contradictions have become the starting-point of this magazine. This issue is not about Haider Ackermann: no interview, no praise, no fashion collection. You seem to be completely absent, but nothing could be farther from the truth. Page after page, this magazine is a mirror of your thoughts, the reflection of your desires, your everyday inspirations. Well-considered and volatile, poetic and hard, melancholic and rational, discreet and candid. 
All of them paradoxes, inherent in your life, that meet at some point. Mostly in thoughts, invisible, ephemeral. You made an effort to grasp this magical moment. To pour 'la rencontre', as you like to call it, into images. 
The moment in which every human's strength becomes his weakness, where- upon his weakness becomes his strength. 
You succeeded. 
Roger Ballen's sometimes raw photos talk about the same pain as Funakoshi's motionless pictures or Hiroshi Sugimoto's endless seas. The subtlety in Robert Mapplethorpe's work translates both in power and elegance.
Berlinde De Bruyckere's oeuvre at times seems to be a three-dimensional expres- sion of Francis Bacon, or a still of the sharp emotions that Kazuo Ohno conveys when dancing. Every contribution has its own story, independent from the others, and still it seems as if an invisible thread connects them all. 
You started from the photos on your memo board, Bacon, Nick Cave, Katja Rahlwes... and we ended with this magazine, in which you gave people you admire, such as Serge Lutens or Will Oldham, freedom of speech.
Antony, Cris Brodahl, Raf Simons, Ann Demeulemeester... they all made a con- tribution, especially for you. Asia Argento and Tilda Swinton shared a part of their personal life with you. 
Every story, chosen by you or made for you, testifies to an intensity and elegance you search for in images, words and friendships.

YOHJI YAMAMOTO

Words are very important to Yohji Yamamoto. Not the endless flood of words used to fill silences, but only those words that seek out the silence, that go for depth, ask questions, listen, look, confirm, words that give warmth, words that sing.
Similarly, every new magazine in our series starts with a conversation. Words that capture the essence of that conversation are used to sketch the rough outlines of the concept. These words are written onto a white sheet. Every time we start with a blank page. Every magazine is a new story.

And so this has become a magazine of many words. About friendships, about collaborations, about admiration. Conversations with 20th century icons and the young turks of today. Words of and about “soulmates”, who share the same fascinations, strive for the same quality, travel the same roads, seek the same silences.
Yohji Yamamoto. In our eyes he is one of last century’s most innovative designers. He has completely changed our vision on fashion. He has enchanted us and forever initiated us in a new beauty – the beauty that comes from within and that bears no relation to what we previously knew.

N1 A Magazine Curated By Maison Martin Margiela


MARTIN MARGIELA

A MAGAZINE is the new name of the Belgian fashion magazine whose title previously played with the letters of the alphabet. Insiders, we know, cherish the issues “curated” by fashion designers Dirk Van Saene (N°A), Bernhard Willhelm (N°B), Hussein Chalayan (N°C) and Olivier Theyskens (N°D). This issue will undoubtedly become a collector’s item as well since our guest curator is Maison Martin Margiela.

Each issue is a new adventure. Because our guests “design” their own magazine, it is “invented/reinvented” over and over again. With Maison Martin Margiela this adventure brought us into contact with everybody that has ever had ties with the house, long or short. Permanent staff members, casual collaborators, trainees, assistants, models, artists, photographers, musicians, choreographers, filmmakers: some of them are still closely connected to the house, others have since gone their own way. Maison Martin Margiela and the “extended creative life and expression of the house” became the leitmotiv. Therefore this magazine is like a reunion, where all of these people were invited tobe present within its pages, to show what they are working on at the moment or a piece of work which still remains very dear to them.

Since its very beginnings the Maison has worked with white, in all its shades and temperatures, as a unifying signature. A trace of these whites, in their many expressions, overt and hidden, runs as a thread between the participations.
“The past is what bonds us – The future leads us” became the dress code for this reunion. You are more than welcome to share this moment of creative expression with Maison Martin Margiela in A MAGAZINE!
