Elizabeth Dijan / Jill / The First Six Issues


Important and Cult early magazine from 'Babeth', now gov'nor at Numero. Pioneering the Japanese new wave, and rising stars such as Lacroix, Gaultier and Alaia, using little known photographers at the time (Babeth introduced Ellen Von Unwerth). Features a who's who of Paris in the early eighties plus crazy amounts of Comme, Bodymap, Yamamoto, Per Spook, Stephen Sprouse etc. etc. Jill ran for only a few issues and provided a launchpad for many of the stars of today. Absolutely astounding.
