Nova magazine, january 1969

180 USD

A January 1969 issue of Nova magazine, published during a defining moment in the title’s evolution.

Launched in 1965, Nova distinguished itself through a progressive editorial direction, bringing together photography, graphic design, and long-form writing in a way that departed from traditional women’s publications. Under the influence of figures such as Harri Peccinotti and, later, David Hillman, the magazine developed a visual and editorial language that engaged directly with the social and cultural shifts of the period.

Its pages moved fluidly between fashion and commentary, addressing subjects often considered taboo at the time, while maintaining a strong emphasis on image-making and layout. The relationship between text and photography remained central, shaping a publication where content and form were closely intertwined.

This issue belongs to that broader moment, reflecting Nova’s role as both document and participant in the changing landscape of the late 1960s.

The 1970s was an era of excitement and change, a decade of restless invention and cultural velocity, during which there was an explosion of musical forms, film genres, and fashion trends that spanned cultures and continents, from New York to Paris, Marrakech to Melbourne; a time when influence began traveling faster and style became a shared global language, culminating in what we now call the Super Seventies.

THE SUPER SEVENTIES

If Origins marked a return to first principles, our second curated collection of archival gems turns toward a moment of pure release, an era when form gave way to feeling and spectacle became a way of life. With this second offering from Réserve, we step into the charged atmosphere of late-1970s New York, where the boundaries between nightlife, art, music, and cinema dissolved into a single, shimmering continuum.

At the center of it all stood Studio 54, the legendary nightclub that for a brief and incandescent period, became both sanctuary and stage: a place where identities were invented, hierarchies unraveled, and excess became a work of art. Beneath its velvet rope, a new mythology took shape defined by glamour and abandon, exclusivity and iconography.

The Super Seventies draws from this fevered convergence, assembling a tightly edited offering of rare spectacles that embody the era’s sense of elegance, irreverence, and provocation. These are objects shaped by a cultural moment where disco met downtown, fashion became performance, and the night offered myriad ways of escape.

Anchored by styles that channel the personalities and provocations of Studio 54 and its orbit—from Bianca Jagger’s commanding presence to the electric pulse of the dance floor itself—this collection captures a time when seeing and being seen were acts of equal consequence. Here, the archive does not simply remember, it revels…
