here's the link...

click on a cover...you can actually flip through the pages of the magazine by clicking on the right 'page' and go back by clicking in the left...

too small to actually read the articles...but some incredibly compelling imagery...
worth the effort...

Thanks Softie!

Baby is a great magazine

 

[softgrey]

my pleasure scott...i only wish i could read the articles...

You should try and get hold of a copy,its quite a refreshing approach,their format. OFR Publications and Magmabooks in London sells them through the web. Its probably the best Dutch publication going right now since the demise of..well,Dutch magazine.

i bought a copy when i was in amsterdam...but that was about 3 yrs ago...
that's how i discovered it...
i still have it...but i never see it around here...

I remember seeing something about it in Elle when they did that feature on Dutch and Belgian Fashion a few years ago. Then a couple years ago I heard about it again through a friend who knows one of the editors(Sharifa Jamaldin)....I had to see what it was about as everybody was saying how good and creative it was. I like it alot. I just wish I could get it here so it won't cost me so much in postage

I still don't understand why Dutch went under

 

[Hanne]

I like.

Dutch went under because of a dispute between the publisher and the founder. It's a shame and it wasn't pretty, believe me

The current Baby has a free tshirt attached to it, it's all about celebrity-dom, super! Just bought one this weekend.

The founder of Dutch recently launched Zoo in Berlin.

You're welcome, it's shame, but at least it's clear it wasn't something the people behind Dutch wanted to happen. It was clearly a matter of the oh so familiar clash between big publisher with zero taste but money and art people .

Dutch was superb, I think the top printed magazines at this moment are Pop and Numéro. Brilliant shoots, beautifully printed and always special to get.

 

[Scott]

That's so true,Alura. Its the same thing that happened with A-Z in Antwerp. They had a big fuss with the publisher(Artimo)because they somehow decided on their own(without consulting the founders)that they would get Viktor & Rolf to curate rather than the planned MMM. To go along as a sort catalogue for the exhibition early this year. A big marketing ploy if you ask me.
