Rise Up Rooted, Like Trees
Explore pathways to resilience in our fifth print edition.
Beauty as a Beacon
The Lissome is a cultural initiative and annual print publication grounded in pleasure activism. Through poetic storytelling, we blend aesthetics and ethics to awaken the senses and expand awareness. Reclaiming clothing culture, artistic craft and print publishing as sensual and sense-making practices, we offer a gentle space for reflection and dialogue – inspiring positive change and making hopeful futures tangible.
The Lissome N°5: Rise Up Rooted, Like Trees
Amid global uncertainty, how do we grow resilience – personally, culturally and ecologically?
Inspired by Rilke’s poetic wisdom, Rise Up Rooted, Like Trees gathers visionary insights from fashion, craft, storytelling, somatics and activism, including an exclusive interview with cover star Lily Cole. With practical tools, mythic reflections and tangible pathways for empowerment and alignment, this fifth print issue invites us to anchor ourselves in hopeful action and resonant futures.

“The words fashion and sustainable seemed to be contradictory for a long time. The world has changed since then, and there is now a new generation that does not separate style and responsibility anymore. The Lissome is one of them, if not even their vanguard.”
— Do You Read Me?!
“The Lissome publishes a very beautiful, very refined magazine. It’s also backed up by a really impressive following that was built online first, and they’ve done a great job of converting that interest into a living and breathing community.”
