#30 (Sept/Oct 2007) Fall Fashion Special

It's that time of year again, when always-fashionable Anthemites feel compelled to take things up a notch. The fall brings crisper weather and a parade of fashion weeks from New York to Barcelona. To celebrate, we've pulled together our most extensive fashion issue yet, taking progressive couture's pulse in a way that the 4 lb. Vogues and Vanity Fairs of the world just don't get . You'll find a rundown of this season's zeitgeist, from the rock 'n' roll drama of Todd Lynn to Gucci's resort line, K Karl Lagerfeld, Raf Simons' strongest year yet and our traditional wrap-up from Paris. Two beautiful actresses (Amelia Warner and Vicky McClure) got stylish for our lens, and post-punk heroine Siouxsie discussed how hot-air balloons inspired her album name.

MUSIC

We visit Liars at their L.A. home base, where we discover that domesticity and mind-blowing rock aren’t mutually exclusive. Then we’re off to the heart of Brooklyn, where a handful of bands are recharging the music scene and making us forget all about the days of The Strokes and Interpol. Also: the return of Sioxsie (without her Banshees), Sunset Rubdown’s musical melodrama, the headbanging beast of Wounded Cougar, and the lyrical mastermind that is Aesop Rock.

Keywords: Liars, Los Angeles, interview, music, Siouxsie, Sunset Rubdown, Wounded Cougar, Aesop Rock

FILM

Film is always fashionable, which is why we’re bringing you both Shane Meadows (‘This is England’) and Vicky McClure, the star of his skinhead coming-of-age epic. The eccentrically brilliant David Lynch dishes on meditation, art, and a new line of coffee. Amelia Warner wears Slow and Steady Wins the Race and Zucca, and Mike Mills gets to the bottom of Japanese anti-depressants.

ART

We’re incredibly excited to have Animal Collective as contributors, curating a series of original artworks based on tracks from their brilliant Strawberry Jam. That’s not all—Jason Lee shoots architectural photography icon Julius Schulman (whose three volume set, Modernism Rediscovered, is now available from Taschen), and we get cosmopolitan with a report on the creative scene in Berlin.
