- November is here, November has arrived, November is
here, November has arrived!
- Oh come on! It’s still August! Would you please
enjoy the summer that is too short anyway and not give the weather any bad
ideas!
- Now I am disappointed in you! I thought you were
always well informed, especially in fashion and art. You should really check
your sources, honey!
November Magazine is THE fashion and contemporary art
magazine in Switzerland and you absolutely have to consult it frequently.
“Dorade awards that special presence in the streets when having it tucked
underneath your arm or placing it sophistically on a pedestal table in the
living room. It is also the everlasting source of topics during an apero but
primarily Dorade is captivating bedside reading that never makes you want to
fall asleep.”
This is the definition given by the Swiss journalist Sylvain Menétrey,
co-editor and co-director together with Philippe Jarrigeon of this new magazine.
