Central St. Martin's New Project


You're not the first to be confused by this magazine cover, but this magazine is actually the new project from the intimidating and world-renowned Central St Martins College of Arts & Design. If you don't know of Central St. Martins, the college has given birth to the highly successful fashion design careers of the late Alexander McQueen, controversial John Galliano, Céline's Phoebe Philo, and my personal favourites, British designer Christopher Kane and the rebellious Givenchy Creative Director, Riccardo Tisci.

From 1 Granary editorial, "All. White. Everything", December 2012
It was only a matter of time before the highly skilled and talented students of the prestigious college would start a publication, especially with the expansion of journalism into the digital world, as most things have, and the opening of rival college, The Condé Nast College. The magazine, called "1 Granary", will be covering fashion, art & design, and is yet to be released. But, the blog has already been established, offering us jealous types to peer into the college and the students' collective interests.

Condé Nast's new College of Fashion & Design


Condé Nast manages some of the world's leading fashion publications, and their most well-known title, Vogue, has opened the doors of their College of Fashion & Design. The London college has been praised worldwide by Editors and Fashion Bloggers alike, and no wonder, as this opens up many opportunities for fashion focused people to be taught by comrades of the Fashion Bible. Industry greats such as British designer, Sir Paul Smith, is one of the many mentors to lend his knowledge of the fashion world to students.


What's interesting about the college is that it is just up the road from one of the world's most prestiguous fashion colleges - Central St. Martins. With alumni from this illustrious college including Stella McCartney, Christopher Kane and the late visionary designer Alexander McQueen, there's a question about what great skilled Designers, Editors, Stylists and the like will come out from Condé Nast. The college is only new, thus offering two courses (more details below), but since Vogue has been experiencing a brand extension, including the Vogue Festival, it's a guarantee that more courses will be on offer in the near future. If you want to know the in's and outs of the fashion world, it's highly recommended that you attend Vogue's first college, it's worth the designer price tag.
