THE AUBIN ALMANAC

Back in the day, we used to produce a quarterly magazine which we called the Aubin Almanac. Since they invented the internet, old school printed magazines have become a bit surplus to requirements [though Editors’ note here: have they? Let us know if you think we should start printing them again!]

Instead, we dragged our old Almanac format kicking and screaming into the modern world and it’s here where we publish all the editorial content that we produce. New material comes out at least every month and sometimes every couple of weeks. It’s mainly stories, lookbooks and write ups of the Friends of Aubin collaborations that we do. There’s a tonne of stuff here, so worth making a cup of tea and having a good old scroll. And as we say above, if you’d prefer us to print it on paper, please do let us know.
