Candy

"In a fantastic riposte to the dwindling state of print media; Luis Venegas, the young visionary magazine publisher and editor of cult magazines Fanzine 137 and Electric Youth! has launched his bravest, most exciting concept yet; a magazine that celebrates the world of transgenderism – Candy. Like his other publications which have featured exclusive portfolios from the likes of Alasdair McLellan and Steven Klein, Candy boasts an impressive roster of contributors from Bruce Weber, Terry Richardson, to Dazed’s menswear editor, Robbie Spencer and Karim Sadli’s breathtaking depictions of Callum Wilson in couture Christian Lacroix and David Armstrong’s fragile depictions of beautiful boys in the broken-down knits of Rodarte. A moving interview with the writers of seminal and inspirational trans-tome Casa Susanna is accompanied by an epic shoot that’s lovingly inspired by it; featuring the likes of Luke Worrall and Cole Mohr in full drag. Interspersed are tributes to some of the most iconic figures in trans-history from Lypsinka, to Joey Arias and of course, the original Candy Darling. While wildly different from his previous ventures, Candy shares in common Venegas’ deeply personal approach to magazine publishing and desire to break down barriers."- www.dazeddigital.com
