It is no wonder then that Thamanyah has acquired a cult following in both worlds.
Silence of the Lambs: The Fashion Media Prostrates Itself Before Chanel and Louis Vuitton
Vestoj and StyleZeitgeist have teamed up in a dialogue and series of critiques of recent events in fashion media to raise more wide-reaching questions about the state of contemporary fashion media – and what that says about our industry at large.

The pieces are created in partnership with a London-based master craftsman utilizing now uncommon materials.
STYLEZEITGEIST 10TH ANNIVERSARY
It is hard to believe that it will soon be ten years since I started my first venture www.stylezeitgeist.com, a forum platform for discussing avant-garde and artisanal fashion. It is equally hard to believe that StyleZeitgeist magazine, which began as its extension, but has took on a life all of its own, will turn five.
