FROM THE EDITOR DEAR READERS, things are changing at ink. It's a fact. One of the biggest changes for me has been my recent position change to Editor in Chief. Though I have been at ink since the beginning, it's been a big adjustment. The one thing that stays constant is the fact that we are all about featuring emerging talent. It's our mission to help those in the industry that deserve some attention. We recently merged with an un-published magazine, Homme & Femme, and have welcomed many new contributors. We also welcome a new cover design and logo, brought to you by Chloe Scheffe, ink's graphic designer. Our covergirl Meghan Lewis (of Agency Galatea) holds her own on a blustery lakeshore in transitional looks (page 118), styled by ink's cover stylist and styling editor Tori McBride. Our writers inform us on swimsuits (14), remember McQueen (174), introduce us to The Local Natives (32), teach us the merits of variety (24), and more, thanks to our Fashion Department Head Promise Newell. Our staff and contributors have poured countless hours into this issue, and we are excited to release it to you! Keep Creating,
John Troxel | Editor In Chief
