And Olivier Zahm, I'm wondering how these girls can let him touch them, he looks so ugly and dirty

and about Olivier Z. .... totaly agree.... But i guess he's someone very interesting....

Olivier Zahm is sooo disgusting ...

^he's gay?

 

[BerlinRocks]

^no i don't think so.... check his myspace... ONLY girls....
i guess he was drunk... and kissed a guy....

 

[mikel]

thanks for yor snaps again

 

[KKnardi]

...typically straight men! but they look so passionate.

 

[BerlinRocks]

oh wanted to say, i made a mistake...
Julia Roitfeld didn't write anything....
She's a fashion photographer in this issue... She shooted 2 pictures for an article about jewels...

and while i was snapping ... i noticed something was missing in Purple now....
I didn't know what at first... and then i looked at oldest issues (purple + purple fashion)... and figured out : Yasmine Eslami and Elen Fleiss.... and really more...
and Purple Men part are missing too....

Olivier Zahm knows how to choose interesting articles...
and this Nickerson-Sorrenti-Ackermann collaboration was interesting....
but the quality is really going down, imo....

and why Olivier Zahm went from Art Direction to Fashion Direction???

 

[mikel]

I for one am not sad the Purple Men part is not there. It was always so mediocre compared to the main part.

The ed on #163 is good, I like the romantic atmosphere it has

 

[BerlinRocks]

^the editorial is even better on the pages!!
my fav. of the magazine with the Sarah Richardson one...

 

[nanker_phledge]

That editorial is really great.There is something about the sun reflection on people that I found moving.

 

[meidude]

Thanks for the snaps, BerlinRocks. Would you snap Suiv Koponen's eds, please? Or you already did that? Appreciate it.

^no i don't think so.... check his myspace... ONLY girls....
i guess he was drunk... and kissed a guy....

I don't know - I don't think straight guys do that no matter HOW drunk they might be

 

[BerlinRocks]

^...
honestly... this guy is a real sex-obsessed...
i don't know if his sexuality is really important, anyway...
but when you look at Purple and just by the choice of Terry Richardson, I guess this guy is real straight....
No matter if he kisses some guys, at least he's not narrow-minded....
We're french, kissing is just kissing.... it's nothing sexual....

it's not like this :

olivier zahm's myspace

 

[flyingace]

whether it is sexual or not, I don't think I would ever kiss a guy that way, no matter how much I had drunk...
anyway, I was dying to see another shot of Olivier Zahm kissing someone, thanks a lot

I support the request of Suvi's ed snaps, if possible.

 

[mikel]

This discussion about Oliver Zahn being gay or not is getting a bit tedious and off topic (though it is interesting).

Can anyone perhaps scan some of the eds? It would be great to see scans before I get my own copy here in the netherlands.

 

[BerlinRocks]

^I posted three editorials + some previews of every editorials...
I've planned on snapping Sorrenti ed later....

 

[mikel]

^I know, thanks for that

Can't wait to see the Sorrenti ed.
