NK: Absolutely, it's a global audience, global distribution. Even the big magazines can't do that. I've always considered fashion, how it's been represented in print, a little disadvantaged. There's been a compromise over the last 50 to 75 years because photographers have to sum it up in one moment. I always felt motion imagery would benefit fashion. If the dress can move, it's better for the dress ultimately.

LC: What do you make of the omnipresence of conglomerations in fashion publishing?

NK: That's what thrilling about the Internet. Showstudio and Hint can get away from corporate politics and broadcast to the world. Print magazines are stuck with hypocrisy, like every time a fashion magazine refuses to put a black woman on the cover. If you ask about it, they'll deny it and cite one example from three years ago, but you know full well it's true. I felt I had to put my money where my mouth was. We haven't accepted any corporate money, just my handouts.
