Sadhbh O'Sullivan( in black), and Kitty Drake photographed in the Observer studio. They are starting a feminist magazine in Cambridge called Ladybeard.
Ladybeard takes the form of the glossy magazine and subverts its content. Platforming voices usually left out by mainstream women’s magazines, they collaborate with individuals who deviate from the straight, cis, white, able-bodied ideal, to provide vital new perspectives. The feminist magazine wants to play with gender, sexuality and identity, rather than dictate its terms.
