Volume One: Women Supporting Women

This magazine explores the role of mentorship among women in the fashion industry through editorial photography and interview-based storytelling. Inspired by Sophia Domenica’s own experiences being guided by influential women throughout her career, the publication reflects on how mentorship shapes both professional paths and personal growth, particularly within the competitive and often isolating environment of New York City.

The issue features six women, including three mentors and three mentees, who share personal stories about guidance, learning, and mutual support. Through these conversations, they highlight the importance of having someone to turn to for advice, industry insight, and encouragement. For mentors, the experience also offers a meaningful opportunity to give back and provide access to knowledge they may not have had earlier in their careers. Paired with editorial imagery inspired by a subtle 1990s business aesthetic, the magazine emphasizes how mentorship fosters community, opportunity, and women’s empowerment within the fashion industry.
