As per Paper Mag, September’s issue (titled: “Luxe in Flux”) will indeed be fluctuating and overflowing with all things posh and luxurious (by definition) as per the things material and immaterial that people value: Everything from Birkin bags, beauty treatments, to all things ‘luxurious’ to and for the mind, body, soul, spirit, time, space and personal sanctity.
Cover stars will include non other than JLo (posing along with Olivier Rousteing-both in Balmain) and rising pop star CL (posing along with Jeremy Scott-both in Moschino).
More in the September bag from Paper Mag:
Elsewhere in the issue, we talk to Riccardo Tisci, who is moving his Givenchy fashion show to New York Fashion Week this year as the brand sets to open a flagship in Manhattan. We also check in with Alexander Wang, who resigned from Balenciaga to focus on his namesake company as we were shipping this issue, about his luxury legacy. You’ll also find interviews with design duos Proenza Schouler and Dan and Dean Caten of Dsquared2 as well as a striking photo spread on luxury and all of its outrageous iterations with famed architect-designers Roman & Williams.
But this issue goes far beyond the limitations of luxury as it applies to fashion. We’ve got a hilarious essay by Kathy Griffin on the luxury of time; Dr. Sanjay Gupta talks to us about the California drought and water conservation; and we take a trip to Cuba and reflect on the luxury of freedom and travel without restriction. The issue also includes a powerful interview with Wikileaks whistleblower Chelsea Manning conducted via snail mail from her jail cell with musician Holly Herndon about the luxury of privacy and how it applies to art, activism and gender.
Wednesday, August 31, Paper Mag promises the cover stories for JLo and Olivier Rousteing, and CL and Jeremy Scott.
The actual print issue of the mag goes on sale Monday, August 31, 2015.
