The Subversive Issue

Cover of MODA magazine, March 2022 issue, featuring a woman with dark skin, braided hair, wearing eye-catching neon green eyeshadow and a vibrant blue patterned outfit. The background consists of newspaper clippings. The cover headlines include topics on sneaker culture, genderless fashion, NFTs, and a subversive issue.

This was the first project I worked on for Moda Magazine after being hired as the Assistant Creative Director. My love for creative directing absolutely started in this apartment while taping hundreds of pages of news paper onto the wall and digging through a mound of clothes on the couch to pair the perfect outfits together. Through the chaos of 10+ people working together in a one-bedroom apartment to photograph, style, direct, and model, I fell in love with creative directing and styling.

Our team was awarded the cover photo as well as the Warped spread on pages 17-23.
