The possibilities of online publications may seem unlimited at times, but the Flaunt Magazine Denim Issue shows one way in which it falls short. Physical publications can offer a unique tactile experience that is lacking with digital ones. In this case, Flaunt has decided to dedicate its latest edition to the beauty of the denim material. It even goes so far as to use denim for its cover.
Created for the July-August 2012 edition, the Flaunt Magazine Denim Issue is sponsored by Guess. Complete with an Ellen von Unwerth photo of Claudia Schiffer, the denim cover sets the tone for the issue, which is chock full of jeans-themed content and items. As reported by mediabistro, this includes Pacific Coast roadtrip postcards from Agave Denim, a stencil from Kill City and an iron-on transfer from Genetic Denim.
