Déborah Neuberg Interview: DE BONNE FACTURE
With so many new brands and start-up labels finding their way out of the woodwork and into the fashion-scape these days, it's seemingly becoming harder to find one with a unique point of difference. For Déborah Neuberg's recently launched venture DE BONNE FACTURE, this uniqueness is found in exploring a particular French identity. Working with several traditional ateliers, Déborah and her team put a significant amount of emphasis on old world craftsmanship and a high level of individual love afforded to each piece by the craftsmen who produce them.

Judy Blame Interview
The number of interns and young stylists who screech on about Judy Blame, you'd think he was paid by the government to enlist recruits to the industry. Bored out of my skull as a kid, I found myself studying the minutiae of his every shoot in i-D Magazine, wondering what the hell a stylist was and who 'she', Judy Blame, was. Fast forward twenty years, and she's a he, the godfather of an effervescent fashion dermis, that thrives under the generation he's spawned, his ideas still resonating.

GASTOWN F.C.
We recently touched base with Gastown F.C. co-founder Owen Parrott to discuss everything about the club. Gastown, once relatively unknown, has garnered a name for itself by integrating fashion with sports culture thanks to their team of style-based individuals. The cult following has led Parrott and friends to present a collaborative collection with Reigning Champ, produce Ebbets-designed hats and play politic-free soccer games weekly. Today, you can catch the team in British Colombia, Canada working on the latest Inventory Magazine issue and playing a little soccer along the way.

The hyper real kid who carved his own destiny is all grown up, although you wouldn't think it to see him bursting out of Dazed & Confused's newly released December '#Fantasia' issue, adorning two of the four covers surrounded by toy giraffes, pandas, flowers and pink plastic bears.

Monsieur Simons, Raf Simons at Dior
Monsieur Simons, Raf Simons at Dior
20/11/2012Simons was born in January 1968 to Jacques Simons and Alda Beckers in Neerpelt, which was “in the middle of nowhere, a village between cows and sheep.” Both parents came from big families, and gatherings with aunts, uncles, and cousins fostered a sense of community and togetherness that Simons, an only child, was drawn to. “I’d run to the next farm, where they had ten kids, and I would become the eleventh.” It wasn’t a life of privilege or wealth, but it was one of absolute love and dignity.
