Where it came from
Wasted Style was self-published by Jamillah James in 1998, emerging from the vibrant and influential DIY culture of the late 1990s. As a zine-style publication, it serves as a personal archive and a cultural commentary on the aesthetics and social currents of its time. The work reflects the independent publishing ethos of the era, where creators bypassed traditional houses to maintain total control over their narrative and visual presentation.
The design of the publication is characterized by its raw, unfiltered approach to storytelling, typical of the independent zine scene that thrived in urban art circles during the late nineties. By acting as both author and publisher, James prioritized an authentic voice that resonated with readers interested in subcultural identity and fashion. It remains a notable example of individual creative expression that helped shape contemporary discourse around style and personal history.
