Roger Deckker / Double 21

That’s Double, en français. And as always, this latest issue of the Parisian journal of mode – the 21st – positively drips class, from its lovely textured cover and thoroughly elegant art direction (such wonderfully understated use of type!) to its deep Double Life / Lecture Seule texts, with literary contributors like Philippe Azoury and art critic Étienne Bernard.


With a lengthy feature (and cover) of works by Roe Ethridge – easily one of the finest photographers working in fashion today (he’s represented by Andrew Kreps Gallery in New York and Gagosian in LA) – the issue is a feast of well-curated imagery. Other highlights include a feature on Aleksandra Woronieka by Serge Leblon, work by Julia Hetta and stylist Hannes Hetta, and a feature shot and styled by Camille Bidault-Waddington.

And 2DM’s Roger Deckker makes a very attractive 12 page appearance, with an editorial featuring the gorgeously gap-toothed Tanga who here channels Joni Mitchell and the 1970s at its most striking. The piece was styled Charlotte Collet and fashion includes Stella McCartney, Céline, Irié, Missoni, Prada and others.
