Editor Note: Summer 2022 The Purification Issues

I am beyond moved and honored that the Formentos created another epic front and back cover for me and a journey of great story telling through their amazing Nostalgia series at the Dive motel and other locations throughout the country.

I’m truly honored to feature two rising stars from Central Saint Martins both of these young female designers are on the fast track to stardom and I’m delighted to support them in any way I can. 

Everyone in this issue has been carefully selected their stories are woven with great care and love for their craft. I’m also very excited about the direction I’ve taken Faddy USA. It’s been a long road and well worth the sleepless nights and long hours curating and crafting something worth waiting for and a visual delight for the FADDY Magazine USA audience. I say FADDY USA because that is exactly who we are and not anyone or anything else. 

I’m proud of the work that we all have done as a collaborative global family and I look forward to what’s coming next. Stay tuned for my upcoming Fall and Holiday issues they will be something to treasure and marvel at. 

Sending everyone big love always.

I’d like to start my opening statement for the “Wonderland Issue” with this beautiful quote about wonder:
“Wonder is the beginning of wisdom” ~Socrates
As you all know, the past two years have been both difficult yet filled with great lessons and incredible strides for many of us in the arts and creative community.
