For the autumn issue of STYLE, creativity comes into focus. STYLE is your inspiration bible for the season, introducing you to the world’s most innovative people, design, beauty and fashion.
“This edition of STYLE, we visit many different creative people taking us all into their studios and worlds and learning how they create within their chosen field,” writes Editor-in-Chief Michael McHugh. “This autumn, lose yourself in someone else’s world just for a moment. You might just learn something about yourself.”
There are two beautiful covers to choose from, featuring Marina Didovich, the Kiwi who is one of the most in-demand fashion stylists in Sydney, and Teeks, a rising star making waves on the music scene here and abroad.
DESIGN
We take you inside a duo of daring tiny homes perched upon a windswept slope on the Chilean coast, offer interior design inspo with two unique homes in Belgium and showcase sophisticated simplicity with entrepreneur Jaimee Lupton’s Auckland apartment.
There are ideas aplenty for interior decoration with fabrics inspired by the natural world, classic Italian furniture pieces which have stood the test of time and artwork created by some of New Zealand’s best glass artists.
CULTURE
Our Culture section profiles artists making their mark overseas, including New Zealand’s representative at the 59th Venice Biennale Yuki Kihara, Sydney-based painter Joanna Braithwaite and celebrated soul singer Teeks.
We’ve also included a feature for aspiring art collectors full of tips from industry experts on how and where to buy art.
BEAUTY
Focus is firmly fixed on the eyes when it comes to makeup and skincare this season – we’ll show you how to achieve some show-stopping looks with shadow and liner.
Beauty editor Megan Bedford updates us on the latest products and bespoke services grabbing her attention, and takes us through trends to have on your radar such as smoky hair and slow beauty.
