LETTER FROM THE EDITOR-IN-CHIEF

It’s a strange predicament to be in: how do you intro-duce a seven-year-old title that, for most people reading this editorial, is brand-new? In 1997, Lucire began as a web site and became mildly successful: more people have typed in its address than ‘vogue.com’, if you look at the stats at Alexa. It got there by treating New Zealand—and any other country it fea-

tured—as part of a single planet, not individual states were people are separated. Despite a European-sounding name (that’s pronounced ‘loo-cheer’-ay’), that story began on October 20, 1997 in Wellington, New Zealand. This magazine is Kiwi-owned. Its profits stay here and don’t go to some offshore conglomerate, as some of you may have discovered when reading others’ credits’ lists. It’s why it launches in New Zealand first, not overseas where the majority of our web readers are. We also launch here because we believe there’s such a thing as the Well Travelled Girl (the wtg). She is either well travelled or wishes to be; she has an international outlook; she does not see this country as an isolated place but part of a global community. It is to the new-century wtg that Lucire speaks, showing that she is intelligent and, most importantly, limitless. Our name wasn’t intended to mean anything: all we knew at the time was that it wasn’t a swear word in the five languages we checked. It was only later that we discovered the connotations of light or to show off, or, in old Romanian, to reflect. With a first public print issue, it’s a good time to reflect and show off. Not only are we breaking the rule that says a web site can’t become a print magazine (or that Hollywood trilogies can’t be made here), we ap-proach fashion, beauty and travel as we always have: with fun, panache

and style. We’ll tackle the subjects honestly—that’s how we managed to survive all these years and become a credible player in many countries. If we hated a collection, we always say so. And you know we can keep this up, because we’ve done so for nearly a decade with the likes of Stevie Wilson, Phillip D. Johnson, Richard Spiegel, Cathy Rigod and the rest of our global team that founder Jack Yan assembled. There is no snobbery here, because the twenty-first cen-tury isn’t about fake images or broken promises. We’re not trying to impress the industry—only you, our readers. In some cases, you suggested our stories through our web site. All we did was to do our best for you. Each month—that’s right, who’s says that New Zealanders can’t do monthly fashion magazines (or go global, for that matter)?—we’ll bring you your dose of style, whether that’s from a brand-new designer taking a chance to set up after fin-

ishing ’tech, or an established one who’s creating something special. Lucire is a meritocracy. The Beauty department is stocked up and ready to make you feel your best, just as your soul demands, using the same principles. Volante, the travel section, and Life/Style show that there’s more to life than fashion and beauty—and that those things can be accomplished with flair, too. We would like to change the way you think about fashion magazines. Whether you’ve followed us for the last seven years online or this is your first issue, we say, ‘Welcome. It’s a pleasure to be here.’

THIS MONTH CONTRIBUTORS

We still don’t know how Stevie Wilson manages to juggle this magazine’s contributions, inter-views, chasing up photographers and still have time to brainstorm, but we’re grateful that she owns a time machine that slows down

the seconds in each day. Either that or her fit-ness regimen and tennis-playing have her body working more efficiently than everyone else’s. Holding an ma, Stevie has written for Lucire since 2000 and was promoted to beauty editor in 2002. Next month, she takes on the role of our editor-at-large. She lives in Long Beach, Calif. with her husband and daughter.

Phillip D. Johnson was born in Jamaica and migrated to the United States in 1982. He served in the us Navy from 1985 to 1989 and was honour-ably discharged in 1993. Before becoming a fashion writer, Mr Johnson was the Managing

Editor of Metroline, a gay and lesbian bimonthly news magazine. A New York fashion show veteran since the Bryant Park tents came into existence, Phillip began writing for Lucire in 2001 and serves as our features’ editor.

Donna R. Himelfarb has written on every conceivable topic from astronomy, medicine and political science to food, beauty and fashion. From her home in upstate New York, she main-tains contacts around the world, while savouring the intimacy and tranquillity of small-town village life. As a flower child growing up in Washington, dc, her wardrobe consisted of well-worn jeans and used army jackets. Today, friends count on her to amaze and amuse them with her eclectic collection of whimsical and classic clothing and accessories.

Jessica Tarazi lives in New York. As a teen, Jessica recruited her sisters as “models” to make up, dress up, pose and shoot Polaroids. While studing art history, she worked at a wig shop with clients like Cher, ysl, Stephen Sprouse and countless supermodels. During that time, Jessica did an advertisement which featured in a few issues of Details, along with some runway shows. She realized that she had to be a make-up artist when she would look at ordinary people and see the potential which they could not. Jessica currently works full-time as a freelance make-up artist and travels the globe for interesting projects.

Catherine Rigod joined Lucire in 2000 and was promoted to San Francisco editor in 2004. Formerly with the Gap, she leads our fashion coverage from San Francisco and has provided Lucire its Los Angeles Fashion Week coverage since the event began.

Amanda Dorcil, Lucire’s chief photographer, was behind the most acclaimed editorial in our May issue, ‘Land Girls’. The former New York model and 2003 Metro Young Photographer of the Year brings her talents to one shoot in this issue. Based in Auckland, New Zealand, Amanda accommodates her work for Lucire with profes-sional photography in a frantic schedule.

Frank Forgione has taken photographs and played musical instruments for as long as he can remember. He had never considered making photography his livelihood; but at one point he seriously contemplated a career as a professional guitarist. Despite his artistic talents, he chose to pursue a career in finance. Earlier this year, he left a lucrative position as a senior trader at one of the world’s largest financial institutions to pursue photography fulltime.

Montréal-based astrologer Susan Kelly writes Lucire’s sassy, savvy horoscope page with the strong, fashion-conscious sensibilities of a Leo. She’s also a fashion

writer—and our Montréal editor. Which may explain why she has the most stylish and style-conscious horoscope going. Kelly has been reading the stars of the fashionable and wan-nabe for years and has written for such haute publications as Montréal Fashion, Definiti, Chic and Elm Street. Kelly also offers consultations and private instruction in astrology and chairs Astrology Montréal. She’s also the author of an ebook on setting personal style using astrology (available at Booklocker.com).

Grace Willetts is a freelance writer who has published articles, columns, stories, and poems with numerous international publications, includ-ing the journals of the University of New Zealand and Appalachian Arts, and a uc Berkeley news magazine. She lives in the San Francisco area with her son, husband, and two dogs.

Sheri Forrest is a freelance correspondent from California. As a former make-up artist based in Los Angeles, she worked in film, photography and theatre. She has contributed articles to print and web publications, including Make-Up Art-ist Magazine, Privilege Magazine, The Beauty Newsletter and Beauty Buzz.

Richard Spiegel is New York editor of Lucire and has been instrumental in getting the maga-zine’s new-season coverage there into its current form. Based in Manhattan, his connection with the magazine goes back to mid-1998. Richard began Lucire’s New York Fashion Week cover-age for the fall 1999 season. He and Phillip D. Johnson recently commented on Lucire’s nyfw coverage on Business Talk Radio.

From travel tips to original commentary, Ashlea Tate has covered a variety of topics throughout her writing career for Daily Trojan, Tana’s Habitat and Five Star Reviews. A member of Lambda Pi Eta, Tate recently graduated from the University of Southern California with a ba in print journal-ism and Spanish.

Jack Yan started Lucire in 1997, when it was released as a web site serving out of New York. His love of fashion came from his back-ground as a graphic design-er. Aside from fashion, he is a regular international speaker, a Medinge Group think-tank member, a well known typeface de-signer and an author of two books.
