Mert Alas, born in Turkey, and Marcus Piggott, born in Wales, met in 1994, at a party on a pier in Hastings, England. Piggott asked Alas for a light, the pair got talking, and rapidly discovered they had plenty in common, not least a love of fashion. Three years later, the duo now known as Mert and Marcus had moved into a derelict loft in East London, converted it into a studio, and had their first collaborative photographic work published in Dazed & Confused. These days, Mert and Marcus shape the global image of such renowned brands as Giorgio Armani, Roberto Cavalli, Fendi, Miu Miu, Gucci, Yves Saint Laurent, Givenchy, and Lancôme, and public figures including Lady Gaga, Madonna, Jennifer Lopez, Linda Evangelista, Gisele Bündchen, Björk, Angelina Jolie, and Rihanna. Their photographs encompass a wide range of styles and influences but are renowned particularly for their use of digitized augmentation of images, and a fascination for strong, sexually charged, confident female subjects: “powerful women, women with a meaning, a you-don’t-have-to-talk-or-move-too-much-to-tell-who-you-are kind of woman.” Bringing our best-selling Collector’s Edition to an affordable, compact format, this collection explores the unique vision of a creative partnership that has defined and redefined standards for glamour, fashion, and luxury. Approximately 300 images from the megawatt Mert and Marcus portfolio are accompanied by an introduction by Charlotte Cotton. First published as a TASCHEN Collector’s Edition, now available as an affordable, compact edition

Probably The Coolest Photo Book Ever
I am a big fan of Mert & Marcus and To be honest i am very happy to own this book. The same feeling to own a limited edition LP copy of your favorite music album...The photos are beyond imagination (obviously) and the book itself is incredible high quality. If you like hard cover photo books this could be the best ever made...

A must
Amazing book, with tons of very artistic, very beautiful photos, mostly of the legandary Kate Moss. Some b&w, some in colors. Very big, very heavy. Will make a great coffeee table book and will surely enrich everyone's collection. For such low price this book is surely a must!

Perfect coffee table book
It is a great size to fit exactly with the Tom Ford coffee table book and works well with neutral colours. There is no text and just great images.

Mükemmel
İçerik olarak beklediğimden çok daha iyi. Fotoğraf sanatçısı değilim ama iyi fotoğraflara bakmayı ve hikayelerini öğrenmeyi seviyorum. Baskı kalitesi vs. 1. sınıf.
