Publisher's Description
Following the blazing success of Martin Parr’s edition
of the experimental large-format Fashion
Magazine, which featured work shot exclusively by
Parr, even down to the ads, and sold out almost
immediately upon publication in the UK last year,
Magnum Photos presents the next instant collector’s
item in this series, featuring work by the New
York fashion photographer, Bruce Gilden.
In this edition, Gilden works together with the New
York Times Fashion Editor Anne Christenssen to
investigate the Seven Deadly Sins of Fashion:
Power, Fame, Addiction, Body Worship, Fantasy,
Illicitness and Exclusivity. The seven sections will
not be bound together like a traditional magazine,
but will instead come one large and sturdy plastic
envelope 15 x 11 inches. Contributors include Anna
Piaggi (Italian Vogue), Bob Colacello (Vanity Fair),
Azzedine Alaia, Hedi Slimane (Dior Homme),
Hubert Selby Jr. Ingrid Sischy (Interview), Chantal
Ross (Yves Saint Laurent), Viktor & Rolf, Jean-Paul
Gaultier, Michael Boroian,
Mathias Orhel, Francesco Vezzoli, Laurence Benaim, Alix Browne, Catherine Örmen, François-Henri Pinault and Carlo Ducci (Italian Vogue). The creative
directors are Nicolas Guiraud and Christophe
Renard. The publication will have a major New York
City launch at Milk Studios in June of 2006.
