We’re familiar with almanacs when it comes to farming,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych],[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], astrology, economics, just about anything except fashion really.
But now we have one for our own industry thanks to Laura Bradley, the Editor-in-Chief of The Fashion Almanac.
The Almanac will be published twice a year, conveniently timed to coincide with Fashion Weeks in late September and late February. It will be a slight one hundred pages and sell for for ¬£5.00 ($10) a pop. If you can’t wait for February (because between this and LOVE,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], we can’t),[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], there’s already content on-line.
The magazine will stay true to its almanac label as “a reference book,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], composed of various lists, tables,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych],[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and often brief articles relating to a particular field or many general fields.” So in the case of fashion, this entails an analysis of designer bows,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], an ‘identification guide’ for various fashion items and an ‘object lesson’ which,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], in this issue,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych],[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], dissects a Marios Schwab dress. Each article comes with textbook-like illustrations and pictures that make us feel like we’re doing something at least half-way studious when really we’re just learning more about the things we already love.
Now, if only we could get a PhD in magazine-reading.
