Shandoz is a Kazakh word for someone dressed with style and bearing. We took it as the name of the magazine because it says exactly what we write about: clothes, style, and the person wearing them.

Shandoz covers fashion in Kazakhstan — local brands, designers, manufacturing and street style. Stories are published in three languages: Kazakh, Russian and English. Our aim is professional, fact-checked writing about the local fashion industry.

What we cover

Industry — business, manufacturing, numbers. Portrait — designers and makers. Lookbook — street style and collection shoots. Trend — where fashion is heading. Guide — practical advice.

Editorial principles

Sponsored material is always labelled. We do not take money to write about a brand. When we get something wrong, we publish the correction at the end of the story.
