bits and bobbins

i found out yesterday that the DIY style magazine, adorn, published by soho publishing, is no more…

so sad.

no one from the magazine told me anything (not that they had to, of course).

i found out the magazine folded by visiting the adorn website yesterday. as you can see, it’s virtually non-existent. my curiousity was peaked, and via a little googling, i found a thread that mentioned the magazine’s demise in the adorn magazine flickr community. i then emailed some contacts to find out more info…

and suffice it to say, the bad news was indeed confirmed.

thus, the remix_redux articles i wrote for the mag featuring select photographs from wardrobe_remix are no more.

thanks again to all the wardrobe_remix(ers) who were featured in the articles i wrote. i could not have done these articles without you, of course!

and a BIG HUGE thanks to adorn for giving me the opportunity to write for them. it was great experience for me, and a heap of fun.

also: my sincere apologies to those wardrobe_remix(ers) who were slated to be in the remix_redux article in the (now) non-published spring 2008 issue. had i known anything, i would have passed on the news to you sooner.

more recent press on yours truly and wardrobe_remix…a great little interview with myself and agathe of stylebytes on matters of style and fashion over at fashion156, by writer eva bowering.

thanks, fashion156, and especially eva!

some wardrobe_remix press!

some weeks back i was interviewed about matters of style and wardrobe_remix by sonya gee of the vibewire blog, the web face of a non-profit arts and media youth organization of the same name that provides a forum where [young australians...] “can comment on matters pertinent to their lives”.

the results of that interview can be read here, in an article about online street fashion websites, blogs, and bloggers entitled haven’t got a stitch to wear?

the article features also features another very popular w_r’er/flickrite, the snail and the cyclops!

(thanks sonya!)

AND, wardrobe_remix was ALSO mentioned in australia’s sydney sun herald monthly supplement magazine last month!

(thank you, sydney sun herald!)
