What grabbed us about this issue...
Issue 9 is all about ambition, with a cheeky theme of ‘YAP’, short for ‘Your Ambition Pays’. It’s fronted by three cover stars, including former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Lisa Rinna, who brings plenty of the unapologetic self-confidence the issue celebrates. We kept coming back to a conversation with fashion critic Diane Pernet, founder of the fashion film festival ASVOFF. If you love a vintage find, you might enjoy hearing from expert thrifter Macy Eleni.
Who is Merde for?
Merde is a funny and unfiltered read. It doesn't take itself too seriously but at the same time it is incredibly passionate about the art and fashion that it explores. It's a great way to discover unusual and out-there designers making bold moves in the fashion world and it takes time to explore each feature in depth. It has a self-deprecating tone that will be appreciated by fellow creative people and assertive and unapologetic photography. If you're looking for something weird and visually different with candid and passionate commentary, this one's for you.
