Founded in 2020 by Jane Howard and Dal Chodha, Archivist Addendum is a publishing project free from the confines of a bound periodical. Non-seasonal and multi-format, it occupies the nascent space between standardised fashion editorial and arcane academe.

Its first edition will bring together the final outputs from members of Fashion Interpretations: Dress, Medium & Meaning, an international, interdisciplinary network led by Rebecca Arnold (The Courtauld Institute of Art) and Judith Clark (London College of Fashion).

Archivist Addendum has evolved from Archivist, which Howard co-founded to renew the museological dilemma of what the uses of the archive might be. Previous projects have explored the works of Hussein Chalayan, Wendy Dagworthy, Comme des Garçons, Shirin Guild, Shelley Fox and Chloé.
