Fabien Baron (Interview's editorial director) along with the magazine's new team will be working form now on for the 'new' Interview. The magazine 'will unveil a thorough makeover in the September issue with a new logo, layout, paper stock and trim size and even a special foil and ink-treated cover. And if readers still don’t pick up on the improvements, the phrase “It’s New, Pussycat!” emblazoned on the cover should do the trick.'

'September is the fashion issue. Photographers who contributed to the issue include Mikael Jansson, Craig McDean and David Sims. Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott shot Kate Moss for the cover, the first time the duo has worked with the magazine. Moss is interviewed by O’Brien, as is painter James Nares. Conversations between writer-directors Woody Allen and Doug McGrath, and Yves Saint Laurent creative director Stefano Pilati and art critic and curator Louise Neri are also included.'

'The magazine added new sections, including Capture, where stylists and photographers capture on-the-fly images on their cell phones; Agenda, a news page; a home section, and the Interview Back Page, a flashback to articles from the archives. The first is an interview with Christy Turlington when she was 16 years old.'

'All the changes don’t come cheap, though: The magazine will increase its cover price to $3.95 from $3.50, although it’s also expanding its distribution by increasing its draw by 30 percent in the U.S., and adding 450 newsstands, or double its previous number, in the U.K. Colette in Paris started carrying the title this summer, and will promote the September issue in the stores with windows and merchandising.'
