Business of Fashion

"SOME Magazine emerges from an urge to fight monotony with an experimental approach to the magazine industry thus they are constantly aiming for alternative options to delight their readers."

SOME is an independently-published international magazine based in Puerto Rico. The magazine is published quarterly in digital format. They are devoted to fashion, art and design. SOME is a reference guide for personal style and is expected to inspire rather than dictate.

The magazine is divided in three sections:

- SOME STUFF features a vast selection of editorial stories by a diversity of contributors.

- SOME PROJECTS reinvent the magazine one issue at a time.

- SOME ONE proposes an innovative way of interviewing.

Their objective is to end monotony by being spontaneous and unexpected. They want their readers to become self-conscious when establishing their personal styles and be inspired by everything that surrounds them. They encourage people to pursue individuality and uniqueness. They incite everybody to exploit imagination and to take risks when it comes to the creative process therefore they give their contributors the freedom an artist deserves.

Their manifesto is: "Fashion is the art form and Personal Style the medium."

Encens articulates some convinching, fruitful points of view at the point at which creation reaches its most unique level. Atypical, its format and design wavers between magazine and object.

Reinventing its rundamental principles for each issue (its focus, monographs, and features), encens offers the best to those who, in fashion as well as in art, unlock exacting worlds.

Mowing back and forth between the present and the past, encens creates maps of the hallmards that captivate our times, all the while taking a second look at the aesthetics of the past that still have clout. It stands for an independent and long-term approach.

The aim of the magazine is to make clearly available those particulars which "make the difference" in a model, and thus to give the right value to the creativity of the designers, of companies and of other people who stay behind in shadow, but who actively contribute to the success of a new collection. SHOW DETAILS comes out twice a year: in April with the F/W issue and in November with the S/S one, it has the text in 5 languages: I, GB, F, D, E but please consider it is very little to leave more space to the visual message.

TWELV’s vision is to combine a creatively common perspective for an audience that has a refined taste but is a bit tired of the usual high-end fashion magazines. This includes the in-the-know, city and international tastemakers who express themselves as a real movement through music, fashion and art. TWELV will feature the most dynamic mix of band reports, actor interviews, behind-the-scenes coverage of art in progress, and of course, fashion.
