This year, Preview wanted to do more than just come up with a list of best-dressed girls. It decided to learn from them by pairing the 18 chosen women and asking each pair to converse about such topics as what’s cool now, beauty vs. fashion, suffering for beauty, defining sexiness, genderless dressing, fashion then and now, fashion in media, etc.

New neighborhood joints to eat in, Max Eigenmann’s photo diary from Art Basel Hong Kong, and a Q&A with Gab Valenciano complete the latest issue of the mag, now celebrating its 19th year.

 

Preview recently partied it up Vegas-style at Hyve, with the  theme “Skin City.” It was a riff on the big skin-baring June cover collaboration of Mark Nicdao and BJ Pascual, featuring Ellen Adarna. But instead of it just being a night of drinking and dancing, there were parlor games, with large dices rolled for party favors, and blackjack played with hunky card dealers.
