LETTER FROM THE EDITOR Dear readers of QP MAGAZINE , With the month of JUNE upon us, our magazine is proud to present the latest edition of fashion, filled with exciting and inspiring content. We are thrilled to have YASMINE KATEB behind the lens, capturing the beauty of ALICE PALAY in every click. Her artistic vision and talent are sure to elevate our cover to extraordinary heights, igniting excitement among our readers. This month, we focus on sustainable fashion and how designers and brands are adopting more environmentally-friendly practices. From producing garments using recycled materials and more sustainable manufacturing processes, to creating designs that last beyond seasonal trends. We have also created a guide for cruelty-free and clean skin products which offer a compassionate approach to skincare without compromising on quality or effectiveness. These products are developed with the utmost care, excluding any testing on animals and avoiding harmful ingredients. As always, we are committed to providing our readers with high-quality fashion content and we hope that this edition meets your expectations. We appreciate your feedback and suggestions, and look forward to continuing to provide you with inspiration and entertainment in the months to come.
Much obliged! JOSE-MARIA JIMENEZ
