National Geographic...The Ultimate Anthropology Accessory!

National Geographic.

The magazine that creates Anthropologists.

Before the internet and its many social applications there was National Geographic.

National Geographic connects people all over the world. Your subscription was the original friend request that was always accepted. Dog eared pages, your twitter retweet. School collages of snipped pictures, your instagram. Decorating walls with their pages, your pinterest.

As one peered through the magazine's yellow bordered looking glass, they often found familiar eyes, expressions and emotions staring back at them set in unfamiliar faces, locations and clothing.

Oh the clothing!

Clothing with vibrant colors, kaleidoscopic patterns, and textures that begged to be embraced and worn could be found in issue after issue of the National Geographic.

Unlike some traditional ethnographies, National Geographic attempts to share the story of humanity primarily through pictures.

Pictures that allow our global extended family members to speak for themselves, directly to us, despite our language differences.

Pictures. The Lingua Franca of the world.

If you have never picked up a National Geographic, or have paused your patronage, now is the time to (re)connect.

What is the first issue should you order?

THE PHOTO ISSUE!* 125 years of photos in one massive collectors issue.

Get the photo issue and practice a little armchair anthropology as you peruse the pages for inspiration for your life and your wardrobe!

And please, carry National Geographic with you as we travel this wonderful road we call Runway Anthropology. It goes with everything.
