Ubikwist Magazine Ubikwist Nº14 The Collective issue Vorige editie

New York, NY – Ubikwist magazine announces its latest issue, Collective. This issue marks a pivotal moment for the magazine as it features an unprecedented number of women artists. The Collective sets the stage for a new kind of storytelling – merging fashion, illustrations, paintings, and beauty in a compelling and provocative style that focuses on the artist-activist. Set for a pre-summer release, Collective will highlight Ubikwist’s journey and address cultural highlights through the personal lens of extraordinary artists.

With photos shot in Rio de Janeiro, Paris, London, Los Angeles, New York, and Tokyo, this issue’s theme utilizes the multiplier effect to shine a light on activism and representational art, the kind of collective discourse that is needed to condemn war and protect women’s rights and healthcare. In true Ubikwist fashion, established artists collaborate with up-and-coming stars in sharing the spotlight. At the core of this special issue proves why Ubikwist has been a champion for diverse beauty. Page after page, beauty norms are shattered as fresh and unconventional faces measure themselves by their own aspirations. 

The issue marks the most extensive global content collaboration for Ubikwist since its inception – featuring an extremely diverse cast of models, photographers, designers, and curators. From jewellery designer Jacqueline Rabun, gallerist Destinee Ross-Sutton, activist and New York Times bestselling author Keith Boykin to actors Michael Evans Behling and Rachida Brakni, Collective centres Black voices and women in an issue that highlights excellence and art across a multifaceted spectrum.

As the war in Ukraine continues to dominate the airwaves, Ukrainian designer Irina Dzhus talks about conveying powerful messages through clothes. The issue also features Fashion Roundtable founder Tamara Cincik, who shares her vision in promoting inclusion and diversity in fashion.
