It's been quite a while since I've posted something worthwhile, especially reading-wise. As you know I am not a person who reads magazines on a monthly basis, save for a few selected titles like Monocle and back issues of the wonderful British publications like 10 Magazine and Fantastic Man. It has been quite a struggle to search for quality local publications ever since.
But it seems that Malaysia has seen quite a few buds of talented fashion journalism and therefore, publication. Hanger magazine is one of the rare breeds that lights up the dull Malaysian fashion journalism scene.
I would say that the content veers more towards street fashion based on its first few editions. However its Spring Summer 12 issue seems to expand topic-wise and therefore covering different niches like emerging international designers (most of which are new to my knowledge, quite naturally), regional street fashion photography and a good set of editorials. There is also a sporadic spread of interviews which give a more in-depth behind-the-scene coverage on a new product or label...

Street fashion photography which transcends geographic and cultural boundaries...
