SUBMISSION Guidlines
Xiox Magazine is a multimedia resource dedicated to promoting creative artists and their work worldwide. We accept submissions from emerging*
photographers and their creative teams**, artists, musicians/bands, bloggers, creative writers, filmmakers, and fashion designers/brands. If accepted,
your work may be featured on our website, in our magazine, or found on any of our social media accounts. All content submitted must be exclusive,
unpublished, and accompanied by model release forms from the photographer for all models involved. NO EXCEPTIONS. For complete submission
guidelines go to our website at www.xioxmagazine.com
*Emerging artists are defined as individuals who are wholly committed to their crafts through never ending experimentation/learning and whom have
developed a unique style or voice through the creation of numerous works which have been or will be published for the global creative arts community
to consume.
**Xiox Magazine can only accept submissions from the photographer unless you have a letter from the photographer granting permission of image use
or you have proof that you own the copyright to the images.
TYPES OF SUBMISSIONS WE ACCEPT:
EDITORIAL:
Editorial submissions, whether fashion or beauty, must have a minimum of 6 different looks with appropriate crediting of products, designers, and
brands. We do not accept “stylist’s own” as a credit, so be sure to submit the label or brand regardless if it belongs to the stylist or is a vintage piece.
You can visit our mood boards available on our Pinterest account (@xioxmagazine) to see rough guidelines of the content we like should you need a
little inspiration.
WEBITORIAL:
Webitorials are open to the current season in the USA only at this time. We accept submissions throughout the season between main issues and may
be submitted for our online or social media content. All online based content submissions must meet the correct criteria and meet the same standards
of quality that our main magazine issues are required to have. As long as they meet these guidelines, you may submit as many editorials as you would
like. This does not, however, guarantee they will all be accepted and published.
PRODUCT REVIEWS:
If you are a cosmetic or hair company and would like to have your product featured in our showcase section, email information regarding the product
and brand to us at [email protected].

SUBMISSION DEADLINES
Xiox Magazine issues are not themed. However we do ask that the content you submit be appropriate for the season you are submitting for, unless
otherwise requested.

tion you will be contacted regarding final edits and final submission details.

We do ask that all of our submissions refrain from posting any and all approved images or stories online prior to the launch of the issue. We reserve
the right to pull the story from the selected issue should you choose to release content early & will be put on our blacklist and no future editorials from
you will be accepted for any future publication.
Commission letters (or pull letters) do not guarantee the publishing of your editorial. All content is subject to the editor’s decision and subject to
change should the need occur. Decisions are based solely on the quality of the submissions and space available in the magazine. Any editorial chosen
to be featured in the magazine is not guaranteed a specific issue either as this may be subject to change at the discretion of the editor.
If you are an agent and would like one of your talents featured, please simply provide us with their latest profile/resume or press release.
