We cannot wait for the launch of Cherry Bomb, a unique high-fashion and foodie magazine run by two ex-fashion editors in New York. You couldn’t get a more stylish combination…

A cool fashion magazine all about food, featuring models eating food, sounds good to us. Cherry Bomb is the brainchild of ex-US Harper’s Bazaar editors Kerry Diamond and Claudia Wu, who claim a lack of “cool indie food magazines” prompted their foray into magazine publishing.

“It is about sustenance and style and the things that nourish the mind, the eye and, of course, the stomach,” say the pair.

The pair found the capital through Kickstarter, a community-run funding initiative.

“We hope our Kickstarter campaign helps us build the Cherry Bombe community and find potential readers and subscribers who share our values and interests,” says Wu.

Supermodel Karlie Kloss features on the cover of the launch issue, while Sofia Coppola is among the celebrity contributors.

“Cherry Bombe features a variety of cultures, cuisines and voices—chefs and servers, food stylists and scientists, culinary icons and up-and-coming entrepreneurs—as documented by some of the most interesting food and fashion writers and photographers around.

“Almost all of the subjects and contributors are women,” she adds.
