Submit Your Editorial to PAP Magazine

PAP Magazine is a Korean art-driven fashion, beauty and culture magazine published from Seoul, with a Milan desk. We accept fashion magazine submissions year-round from photographers, stylists and creative teams worldwide — no agency, no middleman, reviewed by our editorial team within 7 business days (Premium members: 2).

Every published editorial appears on the website in 9 languages with full team credits, and is credited to your Instagram handles on @pap_magazine (380K+ followers).

What We Publish

Fashion editorials, beauty stories and art-driven visual work. We look for a clear point of view: a moodboard-level concept carried through styling, casting, photography and post. Single images are welcome as part of a story — we publish editorials, not portfolios.

Free Publication Requirements

Publication is free when your editorial meets both conditions:

ConditionDetail
3+ looksEach look with at least one image and one credit (brand or Instagram).
3+ different clothing brandsGarment credits across your looks must span at least 3 different clothing brands. Fast-fashion (SPA) labels and generic credits (Stylist's Own, Vintage, Own Design) don't count toward the total.

These two conditions apply to fashion editorials. Beauty editorials (category BEAUTY) have no look or brand requirement and are published free. A fashion editorial that credits no clothing brand at all (or only SPA labels / generic credits) is reviewed as a paid submission (€380).

Editorials below the threshold can still be submitted — they are reviewed as paid submissions (€380). Single-brand or brand-promotional editorials are classified as branded content (€790). Fees are charged only if your work is accepted; a declined submission costs nothing. Yearly Premium members get one €380 submission waived per subscription year (branded €790 excluded).

Technical Requirements

At least 6 images in total (looks + additional) for every editorial, fashion or beauty. High-resolution JPG (longest side 2000px recommended, 1600×2000px (4:5)). All submission content — title, artist statement, team and model credits — written in English. Video (behind-the-scenes, clips) is shared as a download link and published on PAP's official YouTube channel.

What Published Contributors Get

A web editorial in 9 languages with full team credits · social posts crediting your team's Instagram handles · eligibility for Editor's Pick of the Month, featured on the homepage for a full month and promoted across PAP's channels. Yearly Premium submitters choose up to 5 PAP members (free members included) to be tagged as Instagram collaborators on the post (without a selection, collaborators may be assigned at random or not at all), and can additionally request one official PAP Pull Letter per month — a formal letter for pulling samples from brands and showrooms and negotiating locations.
