i-D Fashion Magazine – Issue 3 – Street Style 1981

Love the coffee cup stains on this one.  From early 1981, here we have the cover and 3 pages from its Straight Up section.  I wonder what happened that free flexi disc! And someone should trace these people down and photo shoot them, 2011 style.

    Sorry – I was being a little obtuse! My memory might be failing – I might not be in the coat! And I’m saying George as if you’d know who I meant – I meant Boy George!

      it must be issue 2, Boy George is on the back
      the cover is yellow with a star on… I’ve looked at every name I must be missing it..
      Was you featured as a street style shot, with name and details, or just in a feature …
      I could send you a video of me flicking thru every page…

      I am hoping to track down as many people as possible from the first few issues, so it would be great if we could find the one your in 🙂

      I’ve just sold issue 2 but I still have it in my possession…

      Thanks

    Hello I wonder if you could help? I am trying to find an advert that appeared in the first few issues of I-D mag. It was for a stall in Kensington Market called thehipkido. Would you be kind enough to take a look for me to confirm if it is in an issue that you have. It would be most appreciated as I am trying to buy a copy.
    thanks
    Valerie

    Hi,

    I was wondering if there was an article about different types subcultures in this edition of i-D? I have a friend who wrote the article (his name’s Jason Jules) and he’d be really grateful if you could upload some screens of it. I think it was his first ever article.
