Can someone pls iD the year of this editorial, I'm not sure it's 2003 or 2005...pls be sure thanks!

^2003. Their US Vogue debut (and only the 1st one in 3 collaborations for US Vogue)

 

[surrealseven]

Oh thanks mikel! Got any idea what's the other two colloborations?

 

[mikel]

Their second collaboration was a minor one, a front of book pic of Karolina Kurkova in horseriding attire, it appeared in an issue between the sept 03 and the march 04 issue. The last one was a big ed with Natalia Vodianova in the march 04 issue

 

[surrealseven]

oh thanks mikel! Do share any M&M goodness you have, as long it is not posted and I'm sure everyone will appreciate it

 

[surrealseven]

It's strange that Anna Wintour doesn't like working with them, c'mon, only three collaboratons? Or the duo doesn't like shooting for US Vogue...Haha, no wonder US Vogue readership is going downhill. LOL.

 

[mikel]

you're welcome.

Here is the Natalia ed (the opening ed of the march issue, styled by Grace Coddington)
BELLA DONNA : Natalia Vodianova by MERT ALAS & MARCUS PIGGOT (14)

[mikel]

oops I was wrong about the Karolina pic. it appeared in the july 04 issue. Here it is again from iconography:

THRILL OF THE HUNT : Karolina Kurkova by MERT ALAS & MARCUS PIGGOT (2)

 

[bunnny]

Sometimes I love them, sometimes I don't.
The Natalia Vodianova edit is so blah.

 

[surrealseven]

I just found out that Mert & Marcus has a spread in the August 2004 edition of W called "La Belle et La Bête", which is described as " an homage to the 1930's femme fatale worthy of Jean Cocteau. It showcases a gallery of vixens, all languor, with platinum hair, hooded eyes and carmine-tinted lips. Such pictures convey a surreal glamour and a heightened luxury that has made Mert and Marcus the darlings of the advertising world.." from The New York Times, anyone has the pictures?

 

[Miss Dalloway]

Oh wow that Natalia edit is sooo stunning, i wish we had it in Hq.Thanks for posting Mikel.
