AN INTIMATE DOCUMENTATION
OF BRINGING A FASHION MAGAZINE TO LIFE
The World Of
Rétour
— I could finally see the essence of
RÉTOUR MAGAZINE taking shape
so I felt it was time
to create the core of the brand
My own editorial world.
It's time
— I officially decided to start Rétour Magazine for real
The idea had been sitting in
the back of my mind for
almost two years.
The name was already there,
and I had several Pinterest boards that I'd been filling with images whenever something caught my eye.
But that was pretty much it.
I had a feeling.
I had a vibe.
90 s minimalism
— Visually,
I could see Rétour
My Pinterest board were full of
90s minimalism,
vibey black-and-white moments, close-up details,
minimal colour,
archive fashion mixed with modern simplicity,
and touch of sensuality.
— This was the week it left my Pinterest board and became a real world
— A visual identity.
An editorial language.
A place that finally existed outside my head.
— I documented
the creative journey as it unfolded...
THE RESULT?
10 chapters.
An intimate video documentation from inside the creative process of bringing Rétour Magazine
to life.
CHAPTER ONE
The Start
— It’s all scattered between
Pinterest boards,
documents,
a blog post,
a font,
notes.
It was time to distill it into a core brand.
CHAPTER TWO
Where Do I Start?
After 2 years of collecting inspo images on Pinterest, I had to distill it down to a handful
that would represent the new era of Rétour Magazine.
CHAPTER three
Am I Ready For Something New?
Going into this rebrand, one of the things I really wanted to look deeper into was the font.
And I also feel like I've slightly outgrown this font.
CHAPTER four
the first experiment
Even without a single logo on the page, I want to already be able to
feel something.
And with this one, I could.
CHAPTER five
the second experiment
I'm already noticing a red thread in what I'm naturally drawn to.
There's something about it that just makes sense to me.
Almost like it could become its own little visual language within Rétour.
CHAPTER six
the third experiment
I think I need to shift something.
Maybe it's time to pause and
see what happens when I bring in another direction.
CHAPTER seven
i found it
Now it had an identity.
THIS IS IT.
I'm obsessed.
This is Rétour.
Everything suddenly made
sense together.
CHAPTER eight
building the world
Could I take this feeling that originally came from a photo...
and translate it into just font and graphics?
No photo carrying the vibe for me. Just the visual identity.
CHAPTER nine
rétour magazine is here
How would this vibe look as an actual fashion editorial magazine?
CHAPTER ten
the vibe carries the message
I wanted to see how the world would evolve without losing the simplicity that made me fall in love with it in the first place.
