Purple, Founded in 1992 by Fleiss and Zahm, began as a magazine created in reaction to the perceived superficial glamour of the 1980s. With anti-fashion and avant-garde ideals at the core of its founding, Purple's aesthetic is closer to that of a fanzine than a traditional fashion publication.
Since then, the company has expanded to include a publishing house, an art gallery and several magazines dedicated to fashion (Purple Fashion), sexuality (Purple Sexe) and literary criticism (Purple Fiction). Through these ventures, Purple has established itself as a distinctive and influential force in the international fashion and cultural landscape. Item #2133.
