THE NEW YORKER MAGAZINE: THE 2002 STYLE SPECIAL ISSUE.
New York City, NY: The New Yorker, 2002. Softcover. First Edition/First Printing. Unpaginated. As New. Landmark New Yorker Magazine Issue. March 18, 2002 Issue. Pictorial softcovers, as issued. Contributions by some of the world's finest writers, journalists, poets, humorists, and graphic/cartoon artists. Without DJ, as issued. A first for The New Yorker Magazine, it devotes much of the issue on current styles primarily in fashion but also in the culture-at-large: lifestyle, cinema, theatre, and dance. Portfolio by the brilliant photographer Martin Schoeller on the wonderful new ideas of Karl Lagerfeld, Rei Kawakubo, Yohji Yamamoto, Manolo Blahnik, and Gucci. The Japanese, who are the most fashionable and glamorous Asians, are written about in several essays and there is also the superb essay by the "always-right-on-target" Judith Thurman on Yves Saint Laurent's abrupt and controversial retirement from fashion, after a forty-year reign as possibly the greatest fashion designer of the 20th century. Thurman's most recent book was her collaboration with Richard Avedon, "Made In France". This Issue is no longer available from the publisher, bookstores or online. This is the only copy available online and has no flaws, a pristine beauty. A scarce copy thus. Some of the world's finest living writers and artists. A flawless copy.
