“Beauty, to me, is about being comfortable in your own skin. That, or a kick-ass red lipstick.” (Gwyneth Paltrow)
editor’s letter We start again from One! Dear Readers, This Issue represents a new road for our Magazine! It is no coincidence that we chose the title “Issue One”, to emphasize the beginning of a new publishing cycle. As of May 2017, La Plus Belle Magazine became a two monthly publication. As a result, we’re going to have six regular Issues with our Photographic Editorials, plus any Theme or Collector’s Special Issue, from time to time. Please, keep in mind that La Plus Belle has born as a Digital Magazine, but you can also buy a high print quality hard-copy on demand. Old numbers will always be available for reading and buying online. Furthermore, you can find new content on our website and social accounts, accompanying the published Editorials. As usual, I’d like to remember that all information about contributing to our Magazine can be found at our website www.laplusbelle.it Please, follow us also on Facebook and Instagram to keep up-to-date about what we’re doing. That’s all! Enjoy your reading Gaetano Pavano
