Opulence 1,380 Posted January 6, 2016 Share Posted January 6, 2016 V99: A LETTER FROM THE EDITOR MOTHER MONSTER ON THE THOUGHT PROCESS BEHIND HER RECORD BREAKING 16 V COVERS There is something about fashion that is crucial to my existence. Not only by definition significant, essential to my happiness, necessary, yes—but more definitively, fashion is the cross hanging in my church. It is the anchor in my artistic place of worship. When I first thought of what to write to you, I conjured a vision of my friends as the fashion guard. All of the people who have influenced not only me but the world, for decades and generations. I wanted to line them up in all their glory. This issue would be the royal academy of fashion where I would use V Magazine as a proper love letter to the fashion and art community. But I cannot abide this concept for the issue because it would leave out too many significant, legendary people that have yet to grace V’s covers. I have not yet even begun to dig into my relationship with Donatella and Allegra Versace and Nicola Formichetti, my collaborations with Hussein Chalayan and Alaïa, the inside of my earliest days as a young girl adoring Marc Jacobs, the rainbow of young designers for whom I have troves of “I knew them when” stories, my funny Anna Wintour encounters, or the secrets I know of the many places I’ve been—nothing juicy or gossipy (well, some are, actually). I only really begin to scratch the surface of what I know with this issue.

Warholian 6,880 Posted January 6, 2016 Share Posted January 6, 2016 Can't wait for Tony B to grace the cover in a custom McQueen gown. Edit: Tried to imagine the moment. How many copies would this one sell, 1 or 4 billion? Kevin Parker, Mac Demarco, Mark Ronson, and a stoned Lady Gaga. Need I say more? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HighwayFantasy 2,015 Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 In some weird way I know and understand exactly what she's writing. I am a graphic artist and I always try to create a vision for myself, a white canvas, to fill in. No company's who tell me how to make it or what to communicate, no human who dismiss my design and accept it because they said so. I don't allow noise in my creative process. But I have to fight for it. And now, growing up and being 24 years old, I am proud of last year when I look back on my work and how I defended my vision and creativity. I learned from the best so this article is so relating for me personal! And thats what I mean when I say that Gaga always inspires me. Thats why she is my icon and master Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
