AVANT is a French high-spec magazine that curates and celebrates heritage clothing, primarily North American workwear, western wear and military dress.
Created by expert and collector Eric Maggiori, the magazines function as anthologies, each focused on the evolution of a particular area of vintage clothing in the past, present and the future. Each bookish volume features a specially commissioned drawing or painting for the front cover. If you’re a fan or collector of vintage clothing and/or you’re aware of Japanese publishing on this subject, you’ll appreciate AVANT as another rich, well-researched and slightly different offering in this genre.
