I don’t know why I have to go? I don’t know why I have to grab that off the counter? I don’t know why I have to go out right now? Could it be that there’s something deep and instinctive in me to wanna do things now? Is there something inside of me that understands now is so important? Now is the moment. Not the past, not the future.
PAGE 6| THEME
It’s all about the present. When is supposed to be submerged in what is happening at the very moment understanding that the future will be created off of what you do right at this very second. One is considered spontaneous. Almost anxious is this not what impulsive is? Very nature of impulsive is this, acting or done without forethought. But in my case I call it freedom. Freedom of consequence. Allowing ideals to just flow without thinking about exactly how it’s going to be done. After that done then we can handle it but for now it’s in the moment baby.

Who is Alessandro trincone? Alessandro Trincone is an artist, known as a fashion designer. Born and raised in Naples and he shows every collections during NYFW. What inspired your passion for fashion? My passion for fashion in inspired and based on my own bad experiences. I always try to transform my feeling into a beautiful things, into fashion. My main theme is Genderless. I’m trying to create and identity that goes behind the genders. Something not unisex, ma neautral, which is very different.
The other themes I study for my collections are bullism, racicms, homophobia. I just want everyone to express themselves for who they really are. Who are some of the people you have dressed and worked with? I’ve worked for the Lady Gaga’s campaign for Dom Perignon, I did the album cover of Young Thug back in 2016. Veronica Vega, Ka$h Dolls, Dream Doll, Liza Anne, Steph Lecor and other influencers/celebrities wore-
a lot of our pieces and some of them even walked in my fashion show. Is fashion your only talent? I hope is not, Lol, I mean, I love to do a lot of things. Now my new passion is the garden, flowers and plants are my babies lately and writing is just coming in my world. I’ve started to write during my huge mental breakdown/depression and that just confirmed I am an artist. I ran away from my home a few weeks back and I went to a Hotel just to lock me in for a weeks with all my animals where during my panic attacks I’ve started to write everything I have on my mind in that moment, and what I write is scary but amazing because like in my fashion, bad things become beautiful things.

Add a little bit So let’s see how far this will go. My other talent is to take care of the animals, I have 2 cats and 1 meerkat. I really love all the animals and I’m starting to think about what can I do to coltivate also this other passion. Let’s see What do you think is some of the important things you want to share about the industry for someone who is getting into the field? Can I be honest? Today is really hard. The talent is not everything, maybe today is the last thing. In this industry we need to invest a lot of money, work for free, find people that believes in you and for that reason they help You with no charged. Our Countries doesn’t
of body texts help the emerging artists which is frustrating since only the big brands are growing up and for us young is harder, also because we are so many people. The only thing that i can say is: “everything worth it, all the hard work, all the money spent and the nights passed awake working on the collection”. I would say just good luck guys, hope your dreams come true. If you could do one thing that would make you happy other than fashion, what would it be? In this moment? I would like to be a dad and to have a baby actually. It sounds crazy I know. But it’s the true. I’m crazy I know.
Where do you see yourself 10 years from now? Actually, I don’t see myself in the future, just because I wanna think about the future, everytime I think about the past and future, I become anxious. PAGE 43| THEME

What a year we’ve had What A strange, blasé blah yet interesting year we have had. Theme is had to watch fashion shows and be in person for others only to probably go back into watching shows on zoom. However, we have kept steaming along even throughout the strain called delta as well as the strain now called Omicron. .
We have seen such great creators and such great photos throughout this entire year. We would personally like to think all photographers, Designers, models, Makeup Artist, Hairstylist, writers and anyone in general that has contributed to this year‘s worth of magazines. It’s been our pleasure to be the platform for you. And speaking of platforms, take a look at some of our great photos throughout the entire year.

EDITORS PAGE The stage is set. The platform is now yours. When I started this magazine I wanted it for semi professional photographers as well as those who are not out there to get a chance. A fair chance at that. This magazine was built to Display the true beauty between the differences and similarities as well of all races. It was also built to give A chance to those who do not have a voice in the main stream market.
it is fun to see all different types of creatives. To see how somebody from a different background brings their style of fashion or understanding to the game. In this issue we take a look at some new photographers on the scene as well as Alessandro Trincone and his career of being a fashion designer. Check out our Licorice editorial and as well as Abigayle Rockette in dazzle.
