Popeye 946’s cover features a collage of over thirty people, accented with white hand-drawn doodles. This is a fun time.
Even the table of contents is having a good time. Look at that header break for the feature, with all the city names feeling like luggage tags. Don’t ever let anyone tell you a TOC can’t be broken well.
In the style feature, each page contains more information than the average fashion feature combined. And yet, it’s so pleasing to look at it. Here, the same arrangement of images and paragraphs are laid out twice, with only a few adjustments.
The London page jumps out. Why not include the same person twice or three times? Put white text on top of other white text in the photo. You can figure it out.
I also love how Popeye frequently reproduces its own archival spreads in a dedicated section. It’s a magazine in constant conversation with its own history.
This Casio market spread made the event look unmissable.
