BL8D is a magazine-researcher for fashion designers and creators that analyzes various culturological cliches and produces new semantic constructions based on them; those ones that are able to create an up-to-date fashion product.

In the first issue, which is basically an open anti-military manifesto, the team of the magazine together with art experts, historians, designers and contemporary artists researches those mental doctrines and attitudes in Russian society that most tragically contributed to the possibility of the war in Ukraine.

Current events are presented through the prism of a specific anthropological analysis, the basis of which is a symbiosis of historical background, classical and contemporary art as well as micro and macro trends. 

The issue is divided into 6 chapters, each of which has its own visual concept with vivid graphic design and illustrations.
