Leading with a cover story on Jonathan Anderson—photographed in his Île Saint-Louis apartment by Juergen Teller amidst ongoing renovations—the issue features the designer in conversation with Tim Blanks, Yorn Michaelsen, Jennifer Lawrence, and Magdalene Odundo, as well as a three-way discussion with Benjamin Bruno and David Sims, ahead of Anderson’s first anniversary at the helm of L’Homme Dior following his departure from Loewe last spring. Across the expansive forty-page spread—broken up by a black and white fashion editorial by David Sims documenting Dior’s SS26 Haute Couture collection—the issue’s central theme crops up time and again, with musings on heritage dovetailing discussions about Anderson’s vision for the future of the house.
Elsewhere, Isabella Burley, founder of Climax Books and former youngest editor-in-chief of Dazed, talks about an analogue artefact that inspired her; Jerry Stafford sits down with industry titan and polymath Amanda Harlech—fashion editor, stylist and creative consultant are amongst the many titles she has held throughout her career; Jonathan Wingfield meets with GQ global editorial director Will Welch and W editor-in-chief Sara Moonves; and, Tish Weinstock investigates Substack’s cultural saturation.
