Hedi Slimane - London, Birth Of A Cult (2005)

Slimane seemed to have an obsession with alternative British culture at this time. This book was made during his time at Dior. For all those of you based in the UK like we are, you'll surely remember The Libertines and Pete Doherty's influence on music here and across the world, in a business dominated by mediocre fabricated talent, he was a true original, a charismatic singer, songwriter and performer. Slimane tapped into this cultural revolution and created a number of books that changed music and fashion forever. His designs at Dior would go on to be the uniform of the alternative fashion elite at that time and his photographic insight into the early 21st alternative scene would never come close to being replicated. The man is a genius and this is one of his rarest publications at the very peak of his career.
