2020 is the first women’s magazine that is solely dedicated to music and style in the next decade. The quarterly publication was masterminded by Jessica Seckington. Having worked on fashion shows for Alexander McQueen, Stella McCartney, Luella, Christopher Kane and Burberry as well as photographers David Sims, Max Vadukul and Steven Klein and assisted menswear stylist Clare Richardson at the Telegraph Magazine. Jessica wanted to create a stylish, artistic answer to what women have wanted for years; a powerful publication that informs and educates people on what the music and fashion industries are doing in a less commercial way. The magazine looks to take its readers behind the scenes to understand the way in which both industries work, in an informative modern tone that is newsworthy featuring Q&A’s and photoshoots.

The first issue sees a guest illustration from JOJENK, the East London based illustrator who is famed for her graffiti art battles and is currently in the process of setting up her own all girl art collective which looks set to shake up the currently male dominated urban art world.
