For those who’ve been reading quietly and wondering what comes next—this is it.
Founding Subscriptions to Modern Monclaire are now open.
I began this because I couldn’t find it anywhere: a publication that spoke to women like me. Not performative. Not reductive. Not interested in persuading you of anything. I wanted a trusted, exceptional-quality institution—one with a clear point of view, uncompromising editorial standards, and the quiet confidence of the houses I’ve admired my entire life. Built for women who have arrived, not women still trying to prove they belong.
It didn’t exist. So we are building it.
The publication is just the foundation. What follows is a beautifully interwoven, complete ecosystem for women: events in extraordinary spaces, limited-edition bespoke collections from us, immersive experiences, and dimensions yet to be announced. We are not building for scale, but for depth. Every layer masterfully designed to connect not just to content, but to a way of moving through the world.
This is high-end in the truest sense. Not because of price, but because of intention. We are not building for everyone. We are building for women who recognize what this is the moment they encounter it.
And we are building it with you.
Modern Monclaire is sustained by the women who read it. Your commitment is what makes the standards real. Your trust is what earns the restraint. This is not passive readership. It is patronage. Early belief doesn’t just support the work—it shapes its direction.
Founding Subscribers receive:
– Full access to The Dossier: investigative deep dives into the objects, rituals, and systems that shape how we live
– The complete reasoning behind The Monclaire Guide™: not only the verdicts, but the thinking that earned them
– The full Edit archive, with new editorial formats introduced throughout the year
– Early access to everything before it reaches the wider readership
– Founding status, permanently attached to your name
On pricing:
Founding Subscriber access is $199 per year. This reflects a moment in the life of Modern Monclaire when participation is still close, direct, and formative. As the institution expands, access will rise accordingly.
This price, and your founding designation, are permanent. Once the initial founding cohort is established, this window will close and will not reopen.
If remaining a Reader suits you, nothing changes.
See you Saturday evening for our weekly pour and private talk.
