Summary: Grunge is unfairly maligned,and I believe this proves it
Review: I LOVED the whole grunge,"heroin chic" movement-NOT for its drug connotations,but because FINALLY the spackled-on make-up,the foo foo clothes,the ridiculous glamour lighting,it all ceased.Here you've got a rare,gorgeous pic of Stella Tennant WITH her nose ring(she looked SO much better with it!),by Paolo Roversi no less.You've got a vaguely punkish Rosemary Ferguson,by Corrine Day.Other major photographers are also represented-Juergen Teller,Craig McDean,Mario Sorrenti(Rachel Williams with raccoon eyes,a belly-button ring...and little else;)....the list is endless,really.This is a really COOL book,it is the very DEFINITION of cool.And it may change your mind about grunge!

Summary: Unorthodox and avant-garde but mainly depressing
Review: If this is photography of fashion in the nineties, give me the eighties. Some of the photos are memorable; a few are excellent, but most are uninspiring, often approaching tragic. Joy and fashion are obviously not meant to co-exist, at least in this book.

Summary: This is a book of educible, suductive images! A must have!
Review: This is a book to which people react! Blurring the lines between fashion photography, "Art" photography, sex, and gender, this book is an articulate and provocative essay on the scarcely delinated state of beauty, style, and sexuality; art, commercialism, and culture.I highly recommend it.
