DI MODA Letter from the Editor
HAPPY NEW YEAR
Can you believe it’s 2013 already?
Time goes by fast and that’s why we have to enjoy every single moment of it. 2013 is a new era, a fresh start. A fresh start was what I needed, because this new year is for me in many ways a new beginning. I know that many of us have new resolutions to accomplish and achieve. So let’s work hard, think positive and move forward.
The issue we are presenting was open to any ideas/concepts. I have to admit, I did not know where or how to start. But with the help of talented people, DI MODA is what now we can call a “fashion magazine”. DI MODA magazine was created to share stunning creative fashion editorials from around the world. Every single one of these images was created by the artist’s vision put on film. Being the first issue was nothing but an odyssey in the sense that it was really hard to get the doubters to believe. For that reason I wish to thank every single person that contributed in this issue. Editor in chief Kevin Alexander _______________________________________________________________

New on the fashion design scene, Lynsey McPherson, only recently, in June 2012 graduated from Heriot Watt University, School of Textiles and Design with a BA( Hons)in Fashion Design for Industry. Born and raised in Kirkcaldy Fife Scotland, she still lives in the town, but believes the world is now her oyster and is ready to get out there and show what she has to offer.
Born and raised in Kirkcaldy Fife Scotland, she still lives in the town, but believes the world is now her oyster and is ready to get out there and show what she has to offer. When asked about her newest collection ‘ The Cult of Idol’ she said that it was inspired by the plight of fallen young women who were placed , often against their will, within the Magdalene convents and workhouses, where they were
emotionally, physically and sexually abused by those in authority. This abuse was widespread and allowed to flourish over many years and condoned by the continued silence of the Catholic church. “I want people to see the suffering and confront this affront to human decency by the supposed righteous” The effect sought is one of haunting beauty. 13

"The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It’s the caring that she lovingly gives, the passion that she shows & the beauty of a woman only grows with passing years." — Audrey Hepburn
