“Beauty is everywhere a welcome guest.”

(Johann Wolfgang von Goethe)

editor’s letter Dear Readers, here we go with a new, amazing issue of La Plus Belle Magazine, ISSUE NINE, which will accompany you throughout the upcoming Autumn!

We hope you enjoyed your Summer Holidays!

Our Editorial Team never stopped reviewing and selecting the submissions you sent us in large numbers even during the Summer.

And, in this Issue, we wanted to offer our contribution as well.

Because, first of all, we are all passionate about Photography.

In particular, our Fashion Editor Lorena Grisafi, who posed as a model for this event, and I made a black & white editorial on film, using a vintage Canon Ftb reflex from the 70s.

I think analog photography is very fascinating, both in shooting and development stages, as well as in the final photos review. And we want to encourage photographers to work with film more often and send us their works. There will always be room for them in our magazine, for sure.

The editorial I’m referring to is on page 58. We really love it. And what about you?

I wish to remind you that La Plus Belle Magazine is published in the dual format: on paper, in a premium quality edition, and digital, who want to have it at their fingertips on tablets or smartphones. In both cases, you may purchase it directly from our store: www.laplusbelle.it/store I’d like to invite you to follow us on Facebook and Instagram to stay up to date with our latest news.

If you wish to advertise your business or your brand in our magazine, contact us at advertising@laplusbelle.it and request more info or a quote.

That’s all. See you in November with our next issue!

Enjoy your reading!

Gaetano Pavano

Our Fashion Editor, Lorena Grisafi (IG @lorenagrisafi) (analogic self-portrait)
