Catalogue note
August 2004 issue of i-D, The Subversive Issue, with Angela Lindvall photographed by Matt Jones in a Speedo swim cap and goggles. The cover turns i-D's habitual wink into a literal swimming-goggle gesture; i-D later selected this exact cover in its own '35 ways to wink' retrospective. The issue documents early-2000s fashion image-making through a major model and a photographer closely associated with i-D's visual culture.
Why this object matters
The swim-goggle interpretation of i-D’s wink is a specific cover-design idea, later selected by the publication. Retain outstanding 8.5 for the Matt Jones/Lindvall image without treating retrospective selection as automatic Gold.
Evidence limits: Complete under the standing TMR magazine completeness rule; no missing issued supplement, insert, wrap or other component has been reported.
