Summer 2025 The very first issue of The Face appeared back in 1980. Today the original style magazine continues to share the best stories, culture, talent, fashion, photography and design in the world. A no-brow bounty of film, sports, sex, drugs, pop and politics. You’ll find supermodel Mona Tougaard and The Face regular, Goldie, on the covers of this, the Radical issue. Inside, features on musician Cortisa Star, actors Brian Tyree Henry and Paz de la Huerta, fashion designer Ellen Hodakova Larsson, and comedian Kareem Rahma, best known for his subway interviews in New York (‘I like to think of Subway Takes as a magazine,’ he explains). Plus, the rise of the experimental Nu China scene, and profiles of young trans women in the UK, in response to the recent Supreme Court ruling. On the JournalAs the National Portrait Gallery’s survey of photography from The Face opened to ecstatic reviews, the founder/editor Nick Logan and first art director Neville Brody met for a rare live interview. We’re excited to share a recording of their conversation.LISTEN theface.com
