Acne Paper #21 - Autoportrait - Spring/Summer 2026

Acne Paper #21 - Autoportrait - Spring/Summer 2026 For its twenty-first issue, Acne Paper presents Autoportrait – a special edition celebrating 30 years of Acne Studios through a self-portrait of the creative world that has grown around the house since its founding in Stockholm in 1996. Looking across three decades of fashion, art, architecture, design, publishing and creative collaboration, Autoportrait explores the cultural landscape that has shaped Acne Studios from the very beginning: independent, interdisciplinary and driven by curiosity rather than convention. The cover, photographed by Carlijn Jacobs, styled by Imruh Asha and featuring Lulu Tenney, captures the spirit of the issue – artistic freedom, intimacy and joyfulness at the intersection of art and fashion. In a deliberate gesture, Tenney appears without clothing, underscoring the long-standing spirit of both Acne Paper and Acne Studios: an approach to image-making and publishing driven by culture, emotion and creative expression. At the heart of Autoportrait are four self-portrait stories by Jordan Hemingway, Guinevere van Seenus, Malick Bodian and Katerina Jebb, alongside an Acne Studios archive story photographed by Casper Sejersen and styled by George Krakowiak. The issue also features interviews with Sadie Coles, Honey Dijon, Max Lamb, Viviane Sassen, Robbie Barrat and Swedish actress Lena Endre, with essays by Natasha Fraser, Mark Holgate, Johanna Agerman Ross, Xerxes Cook, Ben Evans...
