For those of you who have not discovered Selvedge magazine, I encourage you to seek it out. Dedicated to ‘textiles in fashion, fine art, interiors, travel and shopping’, the Nov/Dec issue is, as always, a visual feast. It feels like midwinter, with the snowy white cover and wintry woodland photoshoot (complete with eagles and horses) showing off exquisite textiles at their best.
Although the magazine is made of matte paper, the photography is so stunning you can almost feel the stiff linens, the soft wools and the delicate lace. I first discovered it in the shop of an arty cinema in Manchester several years ago and have been hooked ever since.
For me Selvedge isn’t the kind of magazine you pick up and flick through every now and then. It demands a hot coffee, deep cosy sofa and an hour or two of luxurious quiet time to drink in every page.
