Got this in the in-box yesterday: www.anothermagonline.com - Jefferson’s Hack antidote to fast-moving editorial news in the form of a collectible; a slowed-down publication that mulls over fashion as social+cultural theory. As lovely as it would have been to recieve this old-fashion via the letterbox, it made no difference that the magazine, digitised or not, still came resplendant with glossy DPS ads. Ad after ad after ad, it read like a gallery of S/S09 ad campaign trends. A visual feast of the choicest ad campaigns though: Madonna for Louis Vuitton in a smokey french bistro, Dolce & Gabbana’s roccoco conflict on celluloid, Burberry’s greenhouse party, Pamela Anderson and her bosom friends for Vivienne Westwood, alongside Viv herself and husband, Andreas Kronthaler… and so forth. This went on till I found the “View pages as thumbnails” button. Tadah! the full magazine in its thumbnail glory: all the better to skip or further view the ads in a line-up. (I really like the Comme des Garcons Shirt ad.)

The thinker’s muse, Tilda Swinton, is the cover story: “an epic spoken portrait” woven from “anecdotes and stories from many who have collaborated with Tilda on her most notable work.” A very nice article with esteemed accolades from the industry’s heavies, ranging from Victor& Rolf to Hamish Bowles to Chalayan to Spike Jonze. Stunning fashion spread too - she wears seminal pieces by the newest generation of IT designers - though she does look a little shell-shock. All part of her charm, I’m sure.

The Stephen Jones feature and spread is also a mad delight…
