Corduroy is a lovely magazine, got that recently.

Cannot wait untill the new Purple Fashion comes out, it's the one magazine I always buy.

Also have the two INVENTORY magazines in the post for me right now :-)

[Zealouz]

why did no one mention, Gothic: Dark Glamour?

one of the best, imo

[savage science fiction]

The new(ish) Prada book is really good, just got it and haven't had a chance to flick through properly but by the looks of it there's a lot of content on the different areas of the Prada brand

the supreme book is good - worth copping.

i have to say I was more than amazed by the Missoni book. I know it's not the typical sufu'er thing, but yall should take a look at it if you want a really nice book.

[Desi]

Thanks I been thinking about the Missoni one actually.

[bill]

yooo go cop it. it's crazy. it's on my list of books to buy (0)

let me know if you know a place/can get your hands on issues of A Magazine (except the Vero one because i have it). I love em.

[syed]

Or the 20th Anniversary book ( http://www.amazon.com/Maison-Martin-Margiela-Years-Exhibition/dp/907926900X/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1312823721&sr=8-2 )

Bought this when the exhibition was in London for £20, pretty good for the price. Lots of nice pictures and ok-ish essay.

willy gimme your veronique A magazine.

[homi29]

Does anyone have the MMM book? Or has anyone seen it? Worth picking up (http://www.amazon.com/Maison-Martin-Margiela/dp/0847831884/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1312823721&sr=8-1) ?

Dashwood books in NY should have one or both of the MMM books

you can actually order back issues from bruil & van de staaij here. i got my back issue of véronique from them. that was also where i ordered the issue of fantastic man with helmut lang and a big cock on it.

they are both ok but i think the 20th anniversary book is a better buy unless you are into big full blown pages of pictures with little/some text interspersed in the book. if you can, get the issue of street magazine that was devoted to the maison for a good look into the past.

[Rhudeboy]

that stone island book looks sick

what i would do for one of those raf books..

what i wouldnt is pay full price lol

[FrankWhite]

Good read, sort of a stream of conscience autobiography, bits of stories, anecdotes and design philosophy mixed together....

 

 

[eloq]

has anyone bought the some/things mag? price seems crazy, is it any good?
