LAYERED was created in memory of Leia — a space built to hold trans and non-binary creativity with care, intention, and reverence. At its core is community: the ways we find each other, protect each other, and keep going together, even when the world feels heavy.

The Girls Who Ride Forever speaks directly to that spirit. Shot in stark, intimate black and white by Drew Hogg, this photographic series is an ode to trans siblinghood — to the strength that comes from being held by one another, and the quiet power of finding light through shared experience. Drew describes the work as a reflection on how trans people carry each other through dark times, honouring both vulnerability and resilience in equal measure. It’s an offering made with deep sensitivity.

Paired with words by Tintin, together image and text build a layered portrait of trans existence that is expansive rather than singular — a reminder that identity is never static, and never endured alone.

Featuring Elix, Siren, Theo Papoui, Jaylin Ye, Danna Reyes, Daskaran, Evra, and Xena, The Girls Who Ride Forever is less about arrival than motion — about continuing, becoming, and riding forward together. It is a testament to softness as strength, and to community as something eternal.

BANA SETS THE RIPPLE EFFECT IN MOTION

WORDS MAISIE JANE DANIELS Ending the year with a bang, BANA — the boundary-pushing pop artist effortlessly bridging her Kurdish heritage with contemporary global sounds — signs off 2025 with “Ripple Effect” , a slick, high-energy release that feels like a statement of intent as much as a celebration. Hot on the heels of her intoxicating, dance-infused single “ Air ”, and a run of remixes from electronic heavyweights Meg Ward, Josh Parkinson and Ossie, “Ripple Effect” is poli

TOAST 2026 AT THE BARBARY, NOTTING HILL

WORDS MAISIE JANE DANIELS I arrived at The Barbary early on a Wednesday evening, expecting the quiet hum of midweek diners. Notting Hill, with its pristine streets and tasteful Christmas lights, felt a world away from my Tottenham postcode, where my neighbours’ annual display resembles the permanent flashing of ambulance-coloured lights through my window. Yet, stepping into the Grade II–listed corner building on Westbourne Grove, I felt instantly cosy and settled. The restau

THEY TALK WHEN YOU LEAVE: LAYERED

BY DANNI SPOONER - PHOTOGRAPHY + EDIT CHERRY AU LAYERED was created in memory of Leia — a space built to hold trans and non-binary creativity with patience, care, and room to breathe. Some stories arrive fully formed; others need time. This piece lives in that in-between — made years ago, carried quietly, and shared only when the artist was ready. Danni Spooner’s photographic series they talk when you leave is deeply layered, both in form and in feeling. Shot in 2022 — befo

SUBURBAN SAINT

Suburban Saint captures a restless figure moving through the quiet edges of suburbia, where moody, sculptural looks embody the fragile tension between rebellion, memory, and becoming.

CREATIVE AND FINANCIAL TOOLS FOR FASHION FOUNDERS

Where Creativity Meets Strategy: Turning Fashion Vision Into a Sustainable Business Fashion entrepreneurship blends art, business, and relentless adaptability. Designers dream in color, texture, and movement. But turning that vision into a steady business requires systems that support cash flow, brand identity, and operational order. Creativity alone won’t carry a label far. Financial discipline alone won’t attract customers. Success happens when both sides work together. Tod
