isn't it time to reevaluate your magazine preferences ????
what magazine(s) is (are) currently the BEST ones ?
is VP still having its place among the first ?
to me :
Métal has been a great surprise .....
Luis (from Spain, AGAIN !) has been a GREAT editor ! EY and Candy are the gay favourites of this year (is Butt over ?).
Lurve is among the newest best magazine ...
I think I do love the fact iD went trimonthly/seasonal ....
D&C has been very good in the late 2009. and has done some great issues since Formichetti took avoer ....
V is BAD !
I would see that as a different question - because my favourite magazines, as a reader, would be the ones which best suit my personal preferences and cater to my tastes.
But to choose the best magazines, I'd be looking at their content with a more dispassionate eye, and they could easily be magazines I never buy because I don't have any great personal attachment to them, but I could still admire their influence and their ideas, and how important they are in the industry.
US Vogue (easily accessible, easily bought, fashion forward editorials -- the models can be a bit boring though. Not that I'm against Caroline Trentini but she's in every Vogue issue I own)
Numero & Numero Homme (Spend a few bucks ordering this online when the cover looks really nice, the editorials promising and screams "BUY ME!!")
GQ (same reasons as Vogue US)
Vogue Italia cover-wise, but I am yet to own one, thanks to a local bookstore that sells back issues. Yippee!
Preview Magazine (locally)
Time Style and Design (The first ever fashion magazine I read cover to cover waaayyy back. Sad thing they discontinued it. Didn't get the chance to buy the Anja Rubik cover)
i-D (cost me an arm and a leg to get one issue Feb 09 but it was worth it)
US Vogue, because it's better than UK and Australia, and it's the only one I can buy from here.
I don't know about Paris and Italia though, because I haven't seen the contents inside.
Generally, I prefer the seasonal magazines to monthly. Um, Purple, Dansk, Pop. Vogue Paris & Italia are the exceptions. & there's this free magazine given out each month locally, JUICE. I love it. Such a good read.
