Be part of what Vanity-X becomes.
Vanity-X launches with 500 founding members — the readers who will shape the magazine from the beginning. Not passive subscribers. The first room the magazine speaks to, and the first room that speaks back.
What founding members receive
This is not a loyalty programme. It is an invitation to be part of a magazine that does not yet fully exist — to help determine what it becomes.
Full digital access
Every feature, every column, every pictorial, every deep investigation — from launch day and in perpetuity for your membership period. No metered access. No paywalled articles.
First access to every issue
Founding members receive each piece 24 hours before the public, with a personal note from the editor on what went into it and why it mattered to publish.
The Founding Member letter
A monthly editorial letter written only for founding members — candid, behind-the-scenes, about what we are working on, what we are arguing about, and what we got wrong.
Events access
Invitations to Vanity-X events — conversations, screenings, editorial evenings — in London and internationally as the magazine grows. Founding members are always the first invited.
Your name in the magazine
All 500 founding members are acknowledged by name in the first issue. You helped build this. The record reflects that.
Direct editorial access
A founding member reader panel — annual — where you speak to the editorial team directly about the magazine's direction. We ask, and we listen, and we tell you what we decided and why.
Founding membership: £150
Annual. Covers one full year of founding membership — all access, all benefits. When the public subscription launches, the standard digital rate will be £96/year (£8/month). Founding members lock in a preferential rate and are grandfathered into all founding benefits permanently.
Founding membership is limited to 500 places. When they are gone, they are gone. There will be no retroactive founding tier.
Opening for registration now. Founding members will be charged when the magazine formally launches — expected Q3 2026.

Secure your founding membership
Complete this form to register for founding membership. You will not be charged until the magazine formally launches. We will confirm your place and send details when we are ready to take payment.
If all 500 places are taken before launch, you will be placed on a priority waitlist for the first available membership at the founding rate.
"The magazine launches with 500 founding members. These are the readers who will shape what Vanity-X becomes — who will tell us what matters, push back when we miss it, and hold us to the standard we have set ourselves."
If that is the kind of magazine you have been waiting for, we would like you in the room.
