Purple Fashion Magazine Issue 4 (Volume III)

Fall/Winter 2005, opening with Hans Ulrich Obrist's interview with John Baldessari and closing with Juergen Teller's pictures of Kristen McMenamy.

Olivier Zahm interviews Rick Owens, Jun Takahashi, Nicolle Meyer and Mickey Rourke; Craig Garrett talks to Wilhelm Sasnal and Yan Céh to Ellen Allien. The women's fashion runs through Viviane Sassen's "Drugs and Medicine," Daniel Jackson's "My Kingdom," Richard Kern on Shannon Click and "Soft Drag" by Anuschka Blommers and Niels Schumm. Beauty is handled by Katja Rahlwes, Harri Peccinotti, Katerina Jebb and Laetitia Benat, whose "Versailles in June" runs opposite Vava Ribeiro's "New Generation Hollywood." Richard Prince's Brooke Shields and Rita Ackermann's "The Feast of the Beast" anchor the visual essays, and Miltos Manetas contributes "Half of the Sky."

The news pages are filed by city, with Glenn O'Brien on New York, Miltos Manetas on Shanghai, Pablo León de la Barra on Mexico and Valerie Shields on Chicago.
