The Issues:
The BITCH Issue, Editors-in-chief: Cathaleen Chen and Rachel Nussbaum
You are fiery and fierce! You never let yours or anyone else’s voice or ideas go unheard. You involve yourself heavily on campus and throw yourself into all of your positions. You are the headstrong friend that people flock to for advice. You always add your own flair to fashion trends.

The MOVEMENT Issue, Editors-in-chief: Amber Cline and Rachel Lefferts
Okay artsy queen! You love to add a pop of color to any outfit and you feel most ‘you’ in bold tones. Some might think they have your personality pinned down, but you always end up surprising them by pursuing something new. Sometimes this leads to identity crises but your confidence in yourself never lets those feelings linger for too long.

AUTUMN/WINTER 2010, Editor-in-chief: Matthew Alfonso
Inspired by the first coined ‘hipsters’ of 2010, you’re a trend-setter. You always know what you like but you never pretend to like something just because it’s cool (or maybe you just only liked it before it was cool). You have probably taken more than one English class at NU and are still coping with the closure of Unicorn Cafe. You’re thriving in 2021, since you prefer more intimate crowds and you no longer need an excuse for staying in on the weekends.

The INDUSTRY Issue. Feb. 2016. Editor-in-chief: Erica Witte
Oh, you must be on Stitch staff! Fashion is in your DNA. You probably picked up this issue of STITCH without being told to by one of your friends on Instagram. You love the feeling of putting on a cute outfit and any excuse to dress up. You are your friends’ go-to for the latest fashion trends. You’ve probably been using this pandemic to launch your fashion sense forward– did you pick up embroidery? Overspend on a fashionable face mask? Us, too.

The FIRST Issue (Spring/Summer 2007), Editor-in-chief: Joyce Lee
You are classic. You don’t tend to keep up-to-date on the latest trends because you have such an iconic style. You have a squad you put before anyone else and your friends are the luckiest people in the world. You love online classes because it's given you more time to put your passions to practice and you have a lot of them! You’re committed to the hustle and you refuse to give up your dream, even when the haters doubt you.
