Phoebe Philo guest edits FT's HTSI luxury magazine
Phoebe Philo is the guest editor of this weekend's (3 May) edition of the Financial Times luxury lifestyle magazine HTSI (or How To Spend It). It's a rare head-above-the-parapet moment for a designer not known for her publicity-generating activities and comes as her still-young own label continues its series of discreet ultra-luxury launches. Speaking about the issue, she said: 'The people I have chosen to feature in this magazine are all passionately dedicated to their vocation. They are people whom I admire for their talent, their knowledge, their discipline, their complexity and their distinctive expertise.' So who are those people? They include artist Andrea Fraser who 'performs a Phoebe Philo look' on the cover. She was photographed for the cover by Talia Chetrit and interviewed by Sarah Thornton. Then there's curator Koyo Kouoh, who speaks with Charlene Prempeh for the Aesthete interview. It means that despite the celebrity designer link-up, the magazine clearly isn't going down a populist route. Philo added: 'With so much of our collective experience and social interaction reliant on a digital culture, clothes, for me, represent almost the polar opposite. Clothes are tactile, emotionally resonant, personal and, on so many levels, anything but remote. And HTSI editor Jo Ellison said: 'Phoebe's vision is unique and hugely influential. It has been a privilege to collaborate with her on this issue of HTSI and give our readers a rare insight into the people and ideas that interest her.'
