It is no secret that the print publishing industry has suffered quite the hit from its digital counterpart, but some publications are still kicking, and the Dazed Time Capsule auction collection commemorates the Dazed & Confused's 20th anniversary issue.
Partnering up with eBay, Dazed & Confused's Dazed Time Capsule collection is comprised of some very interesting items. The magazine commissioned a slew of influential designers, makeup artists and stylists, and charged them to create something that represents their notion of Dazed within the past twenty years. Versace created a bejeweled lighter, Christopher Kane created an aqua-filled bag, and Kate Moss created classic trainers.
The Dazed Time Capsule collection will be auctioned off later this month. All proceeds will be given to Oxfam, a nonprofit organization tackling poverty and inequity.
