About Us | Red Kimono Magazine
Two fashion enthusiasts located in the D.C Metropolitan 
area with particular interests in Asian culture which 
includes style, arts, and entertainment. We want to

stylists across the fashion capitols of the world. We will 
do this by working to fuse Eastern and Western trends 
into one cohesive industry, showing that there are no

Skidmore College: Salmagundi Home
SALMAGUNDI is a quarterly of the Humanities and Social Sciences which is addressed to the “general” reader rather than to the academic specialist. Founded in 1965 and published since 1969 at Skidmore College, the magazine routinely publishes essays, reviews, interviews, fiction, poetry, regular columns, polemics, debates and symposia. It is widely regarded as one of the most influential intellectual quarterlies in the United States, and though it is often discussed as a “little magazine,” it is by no means predominantly belletristic or narrow in its purview or its audience.
