So a few things have happened since we put out the second edition of the magazine. A recession so big it has its own acronym. A brilliant and talented editor moving to Paris. It’s made the possibility of edition three look slimmer than Anna Wintour in a pair of Spanx..
Still, the fact that so many of you have come and left comments here, or emailed us directly, is incredibly heartening, and lets us know that there is an appetite for smart, funny, feminist fashion commentary and beautiful, stylish illustration. We’re working hard to finish up invoicing, and are looking into some sort of web shop for all of you who have written from out-of-reach places. (Unfortunately we’re all out of edition one, so it would be the full-colour, pretty rad edition two you’d be ordering.)
While we’d love to be a regular proposition, we’re just too small – and at the moment, too broke – to, uh, put out as much as we’d like to. So please, bear with us as we raise the funds and marshall the talent for a potential edition three.
In the meantime, why don’t you pop over to designer Caroline McCurdy’s site, and check out all the brilliant work she’s been doing since the last edition? Caro and her skeleton earrings are very hot property these days, and it might take a bit of begging to get her back if all the financial, literary, and artistic stars align for accb3.
Thanks again, and wholeheartedly, for your support. You’re welcome to rummage our wardrobe anytime.
Love,
