Bazaaro

I stay on the cutting edge of fashion as much as humanly possible. I read I-D, Hint, Dazed & Confused, Purple, Love and a ton of other avant-garde publications. I stay away from Vogue and Elle mostly because of something Vivienne Westwood once said that strikes me as incredibly true - something along the lines of, "I don't read Vogue or any magazine that talks to their readers like they're idiots." But, I really, and I mean really love Bazaar. It seems like an odd choice given the types of outer-limits fashion rags that I typically read, but Bazaar is my favorite. I can't explain why. I love their fashion spreads. I love how it's ALL FASHION and ONLY FASHION and anything that HAS TO DO WITH FASHION. I love how it's not remotely hipstery.

Par example, the Tim Burton spread in October's Bazaar is one of the most amazing fashion spreads ever ever ever. I took the magazine to a party and showed it to everyone who was curious. The dudes and the ladies alike were all, "Whoa. Seriously. Cool. Stuff." I couldn't agree more.

Check out this stunning photo spread.

so true, I read all of the avante-garde mags but I have never been interested in picking up a vogue...maybe because the avante-garde mags use up all of my $$$
