A visual celebration of Italian luxury and the essence of design sensibility. The Altagamma Foundation was created in 1992 to gather under one umbrella Italian companies whose brands are known internationally for excellence. Altagamma promotes Italian industry and the traditional culture that sustains it. The companies included are all prized for innovation, quality, service, design, and prestige, and include Bulgari, Driade, Ermenegildo Zegna, Gucci, Illy, Tod's, and Persol—just to name a few. To mark the twentieth anniversary of the Altagamma Foundation, this lavishly illustrated volume celebrates Italy's most significant brands through the work of Magnum Photo and Contrasto Agency's most important photographers, including Paolo Pellegrin, Alex Majoli, Massimo Siragusa, Lorenzo Cicconi Massi, Daniele Dainelli, and Marta Sarlo, among others. In these images, each brand is no longer just an icon of luxury, but becomes a summation of something uniquely Italian: a synthesis of culture,

A visual history of counterculture music T-shirts, spanning the defining era of indie music. Ripped is the first book to document the shirts of the post-punk and indie period, after the submission of 1960s rock ‘n’ roll to mass popularity and before the onset of ironic consumerism. Carefully selected from the archives of vintage fashion collector Cesar Padilla, the 200 T-shirts in this book are classic examples of rare and extremely limited shirts created by and for the very bands who embodied the true essence of the DIY and indie movements—from The Ramones to Sonic Youth, John Cale, Talking Heads, Madonna, X, Pil, The Germs, and many others. Each shirt has been photographed in all its gritty, sweat-stained glory just as it was found—on the street, in a thrift store, or inherited from a friend. Introduced by Lydia Lunch, the book includes recollections and ruminations from musicians, fashion designers, and pop culture personalities on the enigmatic and enduring appeal of the rock band
