Worn Out
I first discovered Worn fashion magazine when I was living in Brooklyn. They had one issue lying around, and I snapped it up and devoured it (it's actually where I learned about Remix). I went back to the bookshop and begged the guy for more information about them...all I knew was that they were Canadian, since their website at the time was either very tiny or nonexistent. Anyway, I LOVE this magazine. I have all of the back issues, and I just think that it's close to perfect.
So, you can imagine how flattered I was when a lovely writer from Worn emailed me about a piece they were doing about fashion in contemporary illustrator's work. I was thrilled and only too pleased!
The issue just came in the mail a few days ago, and I thought I'd share the pages with my interview with you.
The text is a little on the small side, so I made pdf's, too:
Download Worn1.pdf
&
Download Worn2.pdf
The entire issue is really great, though, so I highly recommend ordering it (or better yet, subscribing & buying the back issues!). It feels good to support a really intelligent, thoughtful indie fashion magazine, so if you haven't bought yourself too many Christmas presents, you should shoot on over there and get Worn out for yourself!
Happy Weekend!
xoxo







Love it! Congrats again! :)

What an inspiration. There really is no limit for you. Talent, intuitive business savvy, hard work and perhaps some luck have really paid off for you in a major way. It's fun to watch you evolve.
