Seven Capital Vices

Magazine covers for Dazed Magazine

7 special issue covers inspired by the seven deadly sins: wrath, gluttony, lust, greed, sloth, envy & pride.

Pride or futility. It is considered the original and worst of the seven deadly sins on almost every list, the most demonic. It is also thought to be the source of the other capital sins. Pride is the opposite of humility. This issue of Dazed takes inspiration from the evil queen (from snow white) and gives insights into the obsessive nature of people in today's world masked with makeup and glamour.

A materialistic world full of selfishness, ego and greed has replaced love, kindness and compassion. Greed is applied to an artificial, rapacious desire as well as the pursuit of material possessions and stand in apposition to any manifestation of true happiness. This issue of Dazed talks about having gratitude and bringing peace in this life or joy in the eternities.

This edition of Dazed brings you into the world of entertainers and dancers focusing on the aspect of one's pleasure, through the art of seduction. The deadly sin of lust is a source of inspiration for this issue.

Jealousy, Jealousy? The insatiable desire that leads to secret admiration, the sin of envy. this issue of DAZED elaborates on the star-eyed desires which brings out the spy in you, a game of Me, You, and Who I Wish I Were

The unimagined horror of stepping into a snare, the lashed out red that follows after, the sin of wrath is the topic of this issue of dazed. Righteous anger can become sinful and when that happens, everyone around us knows. But often, we can’t see it.

Lethargy of the mind and the body truly impedes greatness. The yearning for ease, the human longing for unwarranted facility has been named a capital sin; and justifiably so. Sloth is a notorious vice because its behaviour (or lack thereof) is ungodly and prevents man from doing good deeds.

Gluttony: The lust for food is a sinful pleasure, that harms oneself, often we seek sugar coated words to avoid bitter reality, but be careful! too much gobbling of sweet nothings is a shortcut to doom. This issue of DAZED talks literally about "tell me what you want to hear".
