Keeping busy

The month is already well on its way and we're running a bit late as usual. Not that we'd even have a precise release date though, which is helpful when you’re rounding up content on the last minute. With our kind of schedule, it would be funny to see how Scoute would perform as a print mag. But as one very inspirational designer recently said to me, being online gives an incredible advantage from the constraints of advertising and industry.

September marks the time for New York's fashion week, which unfortunately so far has been very uninspiring to me apart from a couple of designers. Many labels portrayed rehashed looks inspired by classic sportswear making some runway shows more like an attack of the clones. I was unable to attend Robert Geller's show yesterday as I won’t be in NYC until October, but thankfully we had a couple of good people present and judging from pictures and their word, the collection is looking very solid. In addition to New York, this issue will take you from London to Laos through some interesting stories in the fields of fashion and travel. I’m also already excited about our october issue as I've just finished chatting to one of my favourite designers at the moment, Boris Bidjan Saberi. So be sure to check back for the interview and send in your thoughts!
