4to. 97pp colour illustrations throughout in colour printed wrappers. [Tokyo]: Zipper, 1998.

A special issue of the popular Harajuku girls magazine Zipper devoted to Vivienne Westwood. The magazine gives a touching glimpse into the personal collections of Japanese Westwood fans and their unique take on punk styling. Collectors are pictured with all their Westwood gear and the publication also includes an extensive Encyclopaedia of rare garments and accessories. Zipper was established in 1993 with a manifesto that declared: “Say ‘NO!’ to the styles that are same as everyone.” The magazine ceased publication in 2017 but a revival is planned in 2022.
