Fiorucci Panini Album

Should you need an introduction to Fiorucci itself- it was essentially the pop art wing of the fashion world, in the late 70s and early 80s Marc Jacobs, Jackie O, Calvin Klein and so on shopped there, Maripol worked there (and then became creative director), Kenny Scharf showed there, Keith Haring sprayed the Milan shop, you get the idea. The album- and stickers inside show the full flush of incredible Fiorucci graphics from their campaigns to their rather irreverent pop statements. Such a baffling and fun part Memphis part disco/new wave part pop art collection, and a complete graphic history of Fiorucci. Fantastic.
