Imago zine is a magazine featuring and merging many sub cultures of fashion, music, art and people. The content is sharp and inquesitive, the photography is artfully sexy and creative. Imago is connecting people from all over the world with killer social instincts.
About me: As you hold it in your hand, the IMAGO Zine literally pulses with energy and power. The publication's founder and editor-in-chief, has created a lifestyle brand that truly cultivates the most exotic and dynamic content and personalities available.
IMAGO is style. IMAGO is trend setting in pop culture and counter-culture. IMAGO looks at what's current and what's coming, from around the corner, to across the globe.
IMAGO is cool, sassy, edgy, shocking, sexy, fresh, bold, and seductive. It is curious, ageless, timeless, and interactive. It is a must read.
IMAGO is a magazine that explores all facets of pop culture beyond the scope of the mainstream, and is a lifestyle brand that helps its readers cultivate their inner diva. IMAGO fearlessly pursues romantic illusions and fierce social observations. It connects people, draws people from different backgrounds, different media, different social instincts to create a community of trendsetters and style shapers.
Inside the IMAGO zine you will find artful, edgy photography of a graphically superior quality.
The readers of IMAGO are between the ages of 15 and 35 and anyone who enjoys daring, erotic, high-end fashion spreads, inquisitive profiles of eccentric personalities and exposés probing into the sub-cultural underbelly of fashion, art, music, film, radio, television, the internet and beyond.
Each issue of IMAGO is dedicated to bringing something new to the industry, for those whose passions are so complete and so pure they transcend what is trendy, what is haute couture, and reach into new stylistic and artistic frontiers. IMAGO is all about creating opportunities for expression, for collaboration, for insight and for revelation.
IMAGO's readers are part of the process, acting as guides, audiences, voyeurs, partners and critics. They are as unique and diverse as the pages in each issue of the magazine. What they appreciate is IMAGO's drive to continually search for the 'next big thing. IMAGO prides itself on featuring leaders in the industry who are not afraid to break down barriers, flaunt regulations, and defy the thought police.
IMAGO will take you from the red carpet, to the back alley, uptown, downtown and every stop along the way.
What you may find in any given edition of IMAGO are whacked-out blondes, silicone enhanced body parts, performance art, underground movies, razor sharp wit and commentary, music that transforms and touches, a warped sense of humour, shockingly beautiful confessions, flamboyance, haunting words, decadent treats, and the power of images.
IMAGO loves people who start their own religions, loves deafening silence, dreamscape photographs, the rhythms of nature, gaudily painted fingernails, couture creations, hearty laughter, and the intense energy of youth.
IMAGO brings esoteric style to the people through regular fashion 'events', multimedia experiences that draw eclectic audiences to share these unique sensory experiences.
IMAGO turns fantasy into reality. IMAGO can shock and entertain. IMAGO is both real and surreal. IMAGO is here and now!! It is the quintessential expression of modern day life.
IMAGO came out with a bang in late 2006, and made a tremendous splash in the fashion industry from its birth. From their humble beginnings to their place in the limelight, audiences have been constantly entertained with IMAGO's unique mix of glamour and outrageous fun.
Using the Information Highway as a focus of its research, the IMAGO team spans the globe through the Internet, using applications such as MySpace to focus its research and collaborative efforts.
Roberts personally does much of this labour, toiling and networking to delicately select strong artists to create photo essays and literature elements, as well as the brilliant array of personalities she showcases in each issue.
IMAGO is more than just a magazine. It is a lifestyle, a raison d'etre, an escape, but always an adventure
Who I'd like to meet:
How a Zombie Reacts To Guitar Feedback
By Lucas Lanthier
I’m a musician, first and foremost. The importance of fashion, to me, is usually secondary to how nice something sounds, which isn’t to say that I have no regard for visual aesthetics. It’s just that, when invited to perform at the Imago Boutique/Magazine fashion show, “Portrait of a Misfit�, I thought I’d play it safe and, rather than compete with the myriad cutting-edge labels and haute-couture haberdashery that would be on display, I decided to simply wear a kimono and have it done with.
The action went down at Oscar’s in Barrie, Ontario, an hour or so from Toronto. I think the same logic that went into deciding the location for the event was applied, in the past, for deciding on the location of certain nuclear reactors. They shouldn’t be too close to big cities because people are prone to melting. And with fashion labels like Toxic Vision, Playdead Cult, Brandon R. Dwyer Couture dresses, Nervous Breakthough, Eryn Reid, Bully, John Fluevogs involved, was a meltdown ever in question? So, armed with my Geiger counter, I settled in and waited for the fun to start.
Robin Black was our MC for the night, and he began calling in the first few waves of Misfits. Deviancy abounded in the lines and textures that began to ooze out onto the runway, but these misfits definitely had a heady sense of what it means to be relevant, as well. Too much deviancy isolates and ultimately disinterests the audience, but these designs pulled everyone in, and when a ballerina in full vigor presented a certain dress, each person in the audience (I’m sure I wasn’t the only one) fully believed that we, too, could dance like that if only we had the right clothes!
But ballet was merely a facet in this chaos-colored gem of an event. Leather and lace, roller skates and tango duets, seven-foot tall men in dresses composed of stuffed-animals, and an albino python, among other things, arrayed themselves to present the wares of Imago Boutique, many of which were crafted especially for the night. Sandra Roberts, proprietor of the Boutique, editor of the Magazine, and director of the Event, strolled casually among the guests, wine glass in hand, in a transport of austerity, taking for granted the menagerie tromping about, the flora and fauna of her universe that so amazed all of us bystanders.
“Are you pleased with how things are unfolding?� I asked her, as a bloodstained prom queen strutted past, a gaggle of glasses burst themselves on the floor nearby and a humanoid monolith in a gasmask oversaw our conversation.
“Yeah,� she replied contentedly, over the din of a tap dance routine, “this is pretty much what I envisioned.�

Relapse, Eminem’s first original studio album in over four years, drops on May 19 courtesy of Aftermath and Interscope. Eminem is already working on a follow-up album, Relapse 2, that fans can expect in the second half of 2009.
“A lot of people were expecting Relapse to drop last year,” Eminem says. “I was one of them. Then Dre and I went back in the studio in September for a few days, and that turned into six months. We were on such a roll; we wound up with a ton of new music produced by Dre. Putting out Relapse 2 will let everyone get all of the best stuff. ”
