Tangent

Based in Australia and started by a photographer and a stylist, Tangent is “a playground for people who appreciate fashion as art. It targets people who indulge in their identity and want to discover every secret corner of fashion first.”

Noted

I have to say, when I was going through my bookmarks for all of my favorite indie magazines, I noticed that many of them hadn’t published new issues in quite some time, others were offline altogether. I guess my experience is true for others as well–publishing a small magazine is hard, not-very-profitable work.

I also noticed that much of what’s out there is heavily whitewashed. Is diversity really that difficult? Seems like there’s an opportunity there somewhere…

    Thanks for sharing these! I used to love Style Sample and have sort of decreased my online mag reading since you stopped publishing. I need to get back to it!

    Thanks again!
