Side Projects for Olivier Zahm: A Chanel Magazine and a Carine Roitfeld Book

Mon, 11/16/09 — 03:40:48 PM

>> Olivier Zahm, the man who recently described his trademark look as "a disguise" — "five or six years ago, I decided to wear this kind of outfit and behave as if I were a celebrity. It’s not out of narcissism. It’s for the magazine. For an independent magazine to exist, I had to incarnate it personally" — has been busy with projects other than Purple Fashion lately.  He and art director Alex Wiederin have been working together "on Carine Roitfeld's book" — no further details given, and he's also "art directed and designed" the first issue of 31 Rue Cambon, a Chanel magazine — which seems to be in a similar vein as Yves Saint Laurent's Manifesto — to be distributed worldwide in Chanel stores. Featured, of course, are Chanel favorites like Lara Stone, Baptiste Giabiconi, and Freja Beha Erichsen.

Its NOT similar to the YSL Manifesto, Chanel have done an in-house magazine since the 90s!

Interesting quote of Olivier Zahm at the beginning. Act like a celebrity to become one for a magazine. Makes you think.
