Catalogue note
i-D No. 274, March 2007, The Wild Women Do Issue, with Lily Donaldson on the Mario Sorrenti cover. The issue is a strong document of mid-2000s British fashion culture: i-D framed it around contemporary female cultural power, while one of its most historically useful features introduced Christopher Kane to i-D readers through his first interview and first shoot for the magazine. The rear preserves a period Tom Ford Eyewear advertisement.
Why this object matters
The documented first Kane interview and shoot for i-D provide a specific formative designer-publication relationship within the issue’s female-cultural-power framing. Award Gold at 9.0, carefully distinguishing an i-D first from his first-ever interview.
Evidence limits: Front and rear covers are present and no separate supplement or free gift has been identified in research; full internal page-by-page collation has not been performed, so interior completeness remains unverified.
