Purple Fashion Magazine Issue 41 (the Essence of Fashion Issue) is available now on loremnotipsum.com. This issue of Purple aims to capture te very essence of fashion, its own creativity and the transformative power of its social imprint. At its core, this issue will explore the system of fashion and its profound influence on art, sexuality, gender, politics, cinema and celebrity culture.
In 1992, Elein Fleiss and Olivier Zahm started the magazine Purple Prose as a reaction against the superficial glamour of the 1980’s; much as a part of the global counterculture at the time, inspired by magazines like Interview, Ray Gun, Nova, and Helmut Newton’s Illustrated, but with the aesthetics of what usually is referred to as anti-fashion. Based on their personal interests and views; Purple was, and in a sense still is, made much in the same spirit of the fanzine. The magazine quickly became associated with the “realism” of the new fashion photography of the 1990’s, with names like Juergen Teller, Terry Richardson, Wolfgang Tillmans, and Mario Sorrenti. Purple Fashion magazine is high quality, chunky and seriously good, published in France, printed in both English and French.
