Junior Fashion Writer – SKINT. Magazine

15th February to 15th May
Join SKINT., an independent digital magazine championing sustainability and creativity. As a Junior Fashion Writer, you’ll create engaging editorial content exploring conscious fashion and culture. A remote, volunteer role offering real experience, community, and industry exposure.

SKINT. is an independent digital magazine rooted in sustainability, creativity, and community. The platform champions resourcefulness and purposeful artistry, offering an alternative vision of fashion that values conscious choices and meaningful storytelling.

Founded and led by designer Kemi Gbadebo, SKINT. reflects her wider mission for cultural and sustainable transformation. Kemi is an award‑winning circular fashion designer, journalist, and sustainability strategist, and the founder of GBADEBO, a luxury upcycling streetwear brand recognised for transforming textile waste into elevated, culturally driven pieces. Her work has gained national attention through projects such as BBC Three’s The Drop and the VISA x Vogue UK Recycle The Runway Award, representing her commitment to circularity, innovation, and community-led design. SKINT. extends the GBÁDÉBÒ ethos by spotlighting underrepresented voices and exploring creativity, sustainability, emerging tech, and the realities of navigating the creative industries today.
