... Burberry bags, which is interesting and original. The great thing about Nylon is that it never dumbs-down for its readers - it is not the sort of mag that will give you tips on dieting or tell you how to flirt - it is for people who already know who they are. Disadvantages: Nylon is pretty expensive, for £3.95 it is more expensive than the majority of glossies and is about half the size. Added to this the extreme amount of adverts, and you don't always feel like you're getting your moneys worth....more

Nylon: The best magazine ever. (272 words)
by - written on 09/09/08 (Very useful, 22 readings)
Rating:

Nylon is the best magazine ever. Period. This magazine breaks the mould of traditional fashion magazines such as Vanity Fair and Vogue to provide an interesting, original and intelligent take on fashion, with a heady mix of music, film and travel thrown in. Advantages: Nylon always presents celebrities in a different way to other mags (previous cover stars include Mischa Barton, The White Stripes, Ashley Olsen and Christina Ricci). The stars are always made up in photos that have an interesting composition, and the interviews are never wholesale adorations of the celebrity like usual (in particular check out the scathing review on Lindsay Lohan). There is a ... Read the complete review

NYLON was one of the original 'edgy' fashion magazines based in America and has inspired 'Dazed and Confused', 'Lula' and 'frankie' among others. It's role as a trailblazing magazine has been based on it's choice of coverstars (though it's become more commercialised of late), photoshoots and approach to fashion which is encapsulated in one word 'individual'. NYLON is never boring and a beautiful magazine to read. It's not the weighty tome that Elle and Vogue are but if you like to read a magazine that feels good on your hands and fingertips, you're in luck. It has a range of regular features - looks inspired by films/music as diverse as the Breakfast Club, ... Read the complete review

Nylon: What the fashionista can't be without! (366 words)

Rating:

If you are wondering 'Why the hell call a magazine NYLON?!' I can explain this to you. 'NY' stands for New York and 'LON' for London. There, that's that sorted. Even though the offices of NYLON are based in New York City the magazine covers the scene from London and they seem to know more hip things that are happening in our country than we do! The magazine is very refreshing, stylish and sophisticated, yet pop and casual enough. The fashion spreads are wonderful thanks to supermodel Helena Christensen, who is the creative director of the magazine. The articles are great and feature up to the minute people such as ...

As good as many 'pay-for' magazines and MUCH better than many !

Too much emphisis on LUXURY goods, but that's OK too, as it only published every two months.
