Love (stylized in all caps) is a bi-annual British style magazine founded in 2009 by stylist and fashion journalist Katie Grand. [2] She joined the magazine's publisher Conde Nast from pioneering British fashion title Pop with a brief to launch an edgy, photographic fashion title aimed at broadening the company's audience. [3] In 2012, Lulu Kennedy, founder of the Fashion East initiative, joined Grand's team as editor-at-large [4] and Alexander Fury was named editor. [5] Suzanne Weinstock of the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism described the magazine this way in 2010: [1]
Despite its glossy pages, the magazine has a raw look. Black-and-white photography dominates, and most of the color photography has a muted palette, as if the pictures have aged and faded. Some images are clearly fashion photography; others are more like inventive snapshots. Nudity is plentiful in many styles, from the grittily pornographic to the breathtakingly artistic.
The first cover in 2009 featured American singer-songwriter Beth Ditto, naked. Later covers have featured Madonna, Cher, Kate Moss, Miley Cyrus, Lea T, Justin Bieber, and even (for the tenth issue) Minnie Mouse. [6]
Grand left the magazine in September 2020. [7] She was replaced by Whembley Sewell who announced plans to move the magazine to the United States. [8]
