#12 SPRING 2025 – ANNIVERSARY ISSUE

THE ALL STARS ISSUE

LOAD is celebrating our three-year anniversary! To mark this occasion, we are excited to offer our highly anticipated third anniversary print edition: ‘THE ALL STARS ISSUE’, amplified by Converse.

Our ultimate ALL STAR girl Hara Pappa shines bright like Polaris the north star in a galactic cover story like no other. Captured by the brilliant Petros Aronis, Hara’s astral exploration come to life as she poses for the lens. Our creative team, directors Konstantinos Tsagkaris and Filippos Vogdanis, came together to create a show-stopping selection of images combining statement pieces, glam makeup, and stardust. All come to life through the unique styling of Demi Bouki, the intricate makeup of Marianna York, and the distinctive hair styling of Thanos Sfikas.

About the theme

Across generations, we’ve studied the entire sky, each asterism and scattered constellation, to understand where we are, where we’re going, and who we might become. Whether softly shimmering above us or blazing for millennia in the Milky Way, each star leaves behind a light of its own. “Reach for the stars!” we say, yet from down here, they seem impossibly far. What if they weren’t? What if the real stars were always closer than we thought?  

At LOAD Magazine, we invite you to look closer and you will find specs of stardust all around. Because we see them everywhere. It could be your mother, your father or just that person walking past you on the street. 

Not all stars live in the sky. We see all stars in ordinary people who choose to be extraordinary. At LOAD, we board our starship on a mission to uncover those who enter their star form, each in their own distinct manner. For some, they become a compass. For others, a spark of inspiration.
