Raf Simons S/S 2002 - Woe unto those that spit on the fear generation..

The essential book of the early 2000's and the real starting point of the second wave Raf Simons. One of the most influential menwear collections of the decade. Ace.

Raf Simons - The Fourth Sex

Really great and hugely exhaustive tome on teenagers, or 'The Fourth Sex'. Superb Contributions from a huge number of guests (Dead or Alive) including Cocteau, Lynch, Nabokov, J.G. Ballard, David Bowie, Larry Clark, Rudi Gernreich, Bernhard Willhelm etc. Chocked with so many superb images collected by Simons and Bonami. Rather like a huge visual research project, and very Simons-y. Texts are also notably good. A great book.

Alaia - Azzedine Alaia

Really stunning. The best fashion book of the 90's. Huge, beatifully produced with lots of amazing full bleed photographs. Contributions from Helmut Newton, Ellen Von Unwerth, Patrick Demarchelier, Paolo Roversi, Jean Paul Goude, Peter Lindbergh, Steven Meisel, Bruce Weber and William Klein amongst others from 1982-1992. Also featuring a huge cast of excellent Models, Film Stars, Musicians. Lots of large fold outs, gold/silver paperstock, a few sketches, influences etc. One of the most beautiful fashion books that exist.
