The Play Issue

A season of life and style.
Printed biannually.

Spring / Summer 17

Welcome to The Play Issue, a sunshine-filled edition exploring creation and recreation.

PHOENIX is the ultimate lifestyle magazine for the free-thinking modern woman, independently published and printed in the UK. It’s a literary and visual feast featuring hundreds of pages of exclusive interviews, trends, fashion shoots, style ideas, prose features, beauty must-haves, counter-culture discussion, philosophy, art, music, books, film and travel. We have enough stuff; we just want the stuff we have to be better made, by better people. That’s why PHOENIX is underpinned by a commitment to slow journalism, slow fashion and ethical business.

This issue we interview music artists Jorja Smith, Arlissa, Taya, Chelsea Tyler, Gothic Tropic, Becky Tong; as well as the Style Matriarchs: powerful women in the fashion and arts.
