Campaigns, editorial platforms and evolving bodies of work
Katya Moorman’s practice moves between public campaigns, independent publishing, visual editorials and long-running archives—using fashion as a way to ask larger questions about value, culture and change.

No Kill Magazine
No Kill Magazine is an independent fashion and culture publication co-founded by Katya Moorman and Karen Dunn. It approaches sustainability as a question of culture, desire and systems—not simply consumption.
The magazine brings together criticism, original visual editorials, emerging designers, new materials, secondhand style and practical ways to participate in change. Katya’s work across the platform includes editorial direction, writing, photography, design and campaign development.

Fashion Love Story: portraits of well loved clothes
Fashion Love Story began with Vivienne Westwood’s famous dictum, “Buy less, buy better”—and the belief that the clothes we love are the ones we refuse to treat as disposable.
Over the course of a year, friends in New York were photographed with favorite garments: pieces customized, handed down or valued for the histories they carry. The portraits ask a simple question: what would fashion look like if every garment felt this personal?
Originally conceived as a public wheat-paste project, the work shifted during shelter-in-place. Three portraits became short videos, allowing each participant’s voice, clothing and story to unfold through movement and sound.
