Today, Nylon is available at Barnes and Noble bookstores and online. My copy via Amazon is on the way. I see no subscription offer on the Nylon website or send option on the Barnes and Noble website. This could be good news.

This story of a return to print in a digital world is gaining major momentum, triggered perhaps by the growth of book clubs led by people like Kaia Gerber. Book club event listings grew 24% in the United States in 2023 annually, according to ticketing platform Eventbrite; and Meetup saw a 10% increase in book club listings, according to CNN.

VMAN Calls Up 80s Glam and Gore with Hunter Clem Lensed by Domen / Van de Velde

VMAN Calls Up 80s Glam and Gore with Hunter Clem Lensed by Domen / Van de Velde AOC Fashion

V MAN is calling all vampires, who will loose their bloody minds over ‘All Hallow’s Eve Summons the Glam and the Gore of the 80s’.

Inspired by the cult classic vampire flick ‘The Lost Boys’, the fashion story brings together photographers Domen and Van de Velde; model and photographer himself Hunter Clem; and the well-known creative director Nicola Formichetti. [Clem was introduced to VMAN readers earlier in the year.]

Formichetti explains "This Halloween shoot was inspired by Hunter (Clem)’s love for the '80s! It is our own unique story about a modern-day version of the cult film, where Ziggy Stardust meets Billy Idol and goes to a party thrown by the misfits—it's like an abstract version of a vampire."

Willow Smith's Rock Revival Interview and Valentino Fashion Story in V Magazine

Willow Smith's Rock Revival Interview and Valentino Fashion Story in V Magazine AOC Fashion Style

American singer, rapper, actor, dancer and songwriter Willow Smith is interviewed by Dania Curvy, digital editor at V Magazine and VMAN about forging the path for Black women in punk rock. Willow is styled by Nicola Formichetti in Valentino’s Roman Palazzo Collection and Cartier’s emblematic hardware.

Photographed by Domen / Van de Velde [IG], the multi-hyphenate creative blasts through the “lazy stereotype that associates Black female singers with R&B and soul”, making it clear that Black women intend to stay strong in a punk rock music genre dominated by white men.

V Magazine is quick to remind us that Smith’s mother Jada Pinkett Smith was the lead singer in a punk rock band Wicked Wisdom. Smith introduced Willow to Tennessee-based metal band Straight Line Stitch, led by a Black woman, Alexis Brown, now Alexis White.

Willow Smith was “super young’ age when ‘Whip My Hair’, her debut single released by Jay-Z’s Roc Nation came out in 2010. "I feel like I lost my sanity at one point," Smith said in 2018 of the time surrounding her song's release. "I had just stopped doing singing lessons and I was kind of just in this gray area of 'Who am I? Do I have a purpose? Is there anything I can do besides this?' "

In the 2018 interview words of Willow’s father Will Smith: “Willow was really the first person during 'Whip My Hair' that decided she didn’t want to do what I said . . . Because she was the baby girl, she really had the most power over me. As a man – if your daughter says no, there’s really nothing you can do.”

AOC says tell that to authoritarian right-wingers, who fight every day to control women’s bodies through shame and laws. Read Willow Smith’s entire new digital cover interview “Willow’s Rock Revival” at V Magazine.
