Memo from the Editor

Technology has allowed us to do the unthinkable. Ten years ago, it would have been unthinkable of watching real-time runway shows halfway across the globe in the middle of your living room. The development of human inventions has carried us a long way, and I think it's in our every right to embrace them. BARE is traditional in the sense that we're nonconformists in the industry. In the past, we've experimented with alternative printing methods and tweeted front-row at fashion events.

This time, BARE and a few other campus fashion magazines have decided to participate in #CampusFashion, a TweetChat. Starting Monday October 4, 6:00 PM PST, readers will have the chance to have their voices heard and their questions answered. Live conversations about campus fashion, here at Berkeley and on other campuses in general, will come alive. Use the #CampusFashion hashtag to be part of the commotion. It's truly a great way to learn about the growing trend of campus fashion magazines nationwide.

Here are the other campus participants:

• Ohio University’s Thread Magazine (@Threadmag)
• FSU’s CLUTCH Magazine (@FSUClutchMag)
• Columbia’s Hoot Magazine (@hootmag)
• Bucknell’s Be Magazine (@befashionmag)
• Syracuse’s Zipped Magazine (@ZippedMagazine)
• University of Georgia’s Little Red Book Magazine (@LRBMag)
• University of Delaware’s UDress Magazine (@UDressMag)
• University of Michigan’s SHEI Magazine (@SHEIMagazine)
• Duke’s Form Magazine (@DukeFashionMagazine)

Tweet you then!
