Raine Magazine - Volume 32: The Fashion Issue (1)

Hello Raine family. Let's get reacquainted. I'm Nova Lorraine, the Founder and Editor in Chief of Raine Magazine. I launched Raine about 12 years ago, to give a platform to those using their creative gifts to change a community - may it be local, regional or international! It's for creative professionals with an entrepreneurial spirit. We aim to empower you through photos of incredible fashion, destinations, art and technology - all things that are interwoven in the life and lifestyle of the creative entrepreneur. We are a unique community, with needs and wants that cover daily inspiration, wellness, spirituality and creativity. If you get emotionally moved by color, nature, a brush stroke, gemstones, textile, a hardcover book or simply someone's smile-in other words, the little things in life - then welcome to our TRIBE. I created Raine to inspire through one of a kind experiences and great imagery. Welcome to my world. As you go through the pages, you will get a sneak peak at the most incredible people my team and I come across in our day-to-day treasure hunt for the next big names in fashion, culture and technology. These entrepreneurs' personal journeys are all unique and inspiring. As a fashion designer, and prior academician, I see life through a different lens. I look for richness and authenticity in everything, from the hue of a fabric, to craftsmanship of an object, to a brand's graphical narrative - it is the quality that counts. From visual storytelling to the inked words on the paper, it all matters! Inside this issue: - Meet Nala Wayans - next the generation of the incredibly artistic and innovative Wayans family - initially introduced to the world through their hit TV Series, In Living Color. Nala showcases her day to evening looks to Raine - allowing us to see her strong and knowing personality through fashion. - Get to know Monaco's Fairmont Hotel - one of Europe's must stay destinations. They offer everything from breathtaking architecture, exquisite cuisine, a lively pool scene, to international fashion. The staff is equally impressive with their bespoke sense of hospitality. - Over a dozen empowering Q & A's from entrepreneurs changing the game in fashion, culture or technology. One standout is Keith Kirkland of Wear Works! He and his team have created a device that has allowed the first blind person to run the New York Marathon. Simply incredible! - Much, much, more - so, what are you waiting for? Turn the pages and get started on your journey through the Raine!
