Vestoj’s emphasis on storytelling and original thought draws on history, philosophy, sociology, and personal narrative to give a balanced take on why we wear what we wear, and its deliberate pace and style stands in considered contrast to mainstream fashion content.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWe offer for sale 3 everywhere sold out issues:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVestoj Magazine – Issue 6: ON FAILURE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIn a society that venerates success, few things are as alarming as the prospect of failure. The thought of failure is compelling though, irresistible even, perhaps both because it offers us a chance to empathise but also because it allows us to look at those who have failed and feel better about ourselves. Failure scares us as much as it fascinates us. We have all suffered from it, in one way or another, and we all will again. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWith this issue we’d like to explore whether designers can ever speak candidly about their work in a market where they are not only artists, but also peddlers of a product.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVestoj Magazine – Issue 8: ON AUTHENTICITY\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn consumer capitalism authenticity has taken on a supreme importance: in fashion it’s the holy grail. Terms like ‘artisanal,’ ‘heritage,’ ‘craftsmanship’ and ‘storytelling’ have become buzzwords, and conglomerates are fond of referring to their offices as ‘campus’ and co-workers as ‘family.’\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBut what are we getting at when associating these terms with fashion?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVestoj Magazine – Issue 9: ON CAPITAL\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eVestoj On Capital\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\"\u003e looks at all forms of value or assets: financial, human, cultural, social – you name it. We explore how talent is developed and harnessed in fashion, and how this now intersects with branding (and self-branding) which has become so important in all aspects of culture. The issue also examines how value flows between symbolic assets like taste or beauty or cool and economic profit.
