Our preposterously pleasurable Fall Print Edition has landed in lobbies and discerning shops, and we couldn’t be more thrilled — it's our biggest issue to date, chock full of indispensable stories to get you in the mood for fall.

Our cover goddess, 26-year-old songstress BANKS, rang in Fall Fashion Week last night to a packed house at The Top of The Standard with the midtown skyline as her backdrop. It was quite a moment. If you were lucky enough to catch her spellbinding performance, then you already know: this girl is about to blow the f*ck up. If you weren’t there, may we introduce…your next obsession.

Check out our emoji-laced text message interview below, fresh off the presses. She keeps her number public on Facebook - we texted her to say 'sup, and she totally texted back. You should text her, too.

Happy late summer/early fall! Happy Fashion Week! And happy Print Issue to all!
