Not only does it mark issue number three, but it also marks a progression of our story. Lace is more than lingerie to us. In fact, our editor spent her early years working for a major lingerie brand. What is so special about lace is how it makes a woman feel - it can transport her to a place of serenity, a sexual place or simply to a place where she feels most comfortable. For Md3, we speak with model Caroline Dittmann, who we were introduced to via our model muse Agi Fischer. We go back to our roots with our Otter Ten series, featuring model Selena Weber. This is a model we first encountered last year, and we interviewed her immediately for MalenDyer. She is a chameleon that is just so down-to-earth. We explore a day-in-the-life of Collar. This is the Latvia-based lingerie and swimwear brand that found us! In a follow-up to an original interview we did with them - The Collar Team on the Brand's Fresh Take on Lingerie and Swimwear Design, we wanted to see how their brand has evolved by catching a sneak peek into their daily routine.

Cape Published by the University ofof Cape Town (UCT) in terms of the non-exclusive license granted to UCT by the author. University Village People: Quartering De Waterkant in discourse and bricks Bradley Michael Rink Thesis Presented for the Degree of Town DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in the Department of EnvironmentalCape and Geographical Science of UNIVERSITY OF CAPE TOWN August 2008 University Abstract Village People: Quartering De Waterkant in discourse and bricks Bradley Rink – University of Cape Town Focusing on the urban quarter of Cape Town known as De Waterkant, this thesis examines the product and process of shaping urban space that serves as the locus for the symbolic framing of culture. Through a detailed analysis of human, narrative and visual texts which describe the production and consumption of space, this work demonstrates that there are both utopian and dystopian tropes working in discursive and material ways to shape the identity and form of De Waterkant’s quartering. Drawing on Situational Analysis and Actor Network Theory methodologies, this research uses case study, interviews, participant observation, and analysis of texts to identify the discursive and material structures that have contributed to the creation of quartered space. This work combines insights and arguments drawn from a body of literature on place, the city, utopia, and identity—all grounded within the South African urban context that makes De Waterkant’s quartering subject to identities, histories, and spatial power structures that may not affect quarterings in other urban settings.
