Details. March 1989. Volume VII, No. 9
New York: Details Publishing Corp. 1989. 1st Edition. Quarto, publisher's photo-illustrated wraps.
Spring 1989 fashion issue of editor Annie Flanders's famed monthly New York fashion and nightlife magazine. Flanders's 1980s downtown bible was bought by Condé Nast in 1988, with Flanders retained as editor for a few more years, before a complete makeover as a mainstream men's magazine. This issue captures the tension of that transitional period, as advertising pages for major brands swell and share space with niche labels and locales, and scenes from louche nights out abound. This issue features a massive 111-page spring fashion collections feature shot by Bill Cunningham, with spreads on Margiela, Alaïa, Gaultier, Yohji Yamamoto, Miyake, Comme des Garçons, Armani, Lagerfeld, and many more. Also features interviews with Lou Reed and Mary Woronov, art writing by Cookie Mueller, and more. Closed tear to upper wrap, light soiling and edgewear. Very good. Item #12474
