WORN Fashion Journal is a print publication that comes out twice a year (once in hot weather, once in cold) based in Toronto, Canada. WORN discusses the cultures, subcultures, histories, and personal stories of fashion. It strives to embody a place between pop culture magazine and academic journal that opens new avenues in art and fashion theory by hovering where these two ideas intersect, connecting with fashion scholars and artists.
The issue 6.5 × 8.5 inches, 98 pages, and bound with a real spine, like a little book. Half the issue is in colour and the other half is in black and white.
