Last week Jefferson Hack, founder of Dazed & Confused Magazine, sat
down for a chat with Imran Amed at the Sanderson Hotel in London. The
conversation, streamed live on a few selected worldwide fashion
websites, was part of
Business of Fashion's new Fashion Pioneers
project. BoF editor-in-chief Amed plans to interview industry insiders
about their view on fashion related issues and Hack, of course, was
quizzed about his array of magazines and websites, which includes Dazed
Digital, and how he sees the future of magazine publishing versus
digital media. Questions for Mr Hack had been posed by BoF readers
through Twitter and the interview was screened live on, among others,
Style Bubble,
A Shaded View on Fashion,
Bryan Boy and
JC Report. Here
are four excerpts from the interview, which also saw Hack present the
first ever Dazed & Confused iPad app, due to be launched in
conjunction with its August issue.
