Purple Number 5, Summer '00 is an independent magazine from Paris, France. Founded in 1992 by Ellen Fleiss and Olivier Zahm as Purple Prose, Purple has traversed fashion, photography, contemporary art, and literature, significantly influencing independent publishing culture since the 1990s. This summer 2000 issue is comprised of Fashion, Prose, Fiction, Special, and Interior sections. Featuring a cover photo of Chloë Sevigny by Mark Borthwick, the issue includes contributions from Wolfgang Tillmans, Terry Richardson, Anders Edström, Katja Lalwes, and Japanese photographers such as Masashi Sanai, Chikashi Suzuki, and Kensuke Niitsu. It showcases the intersection of iconic fashion of the time—including COMME des GARÇONS, Helmut Lang, Miu Miu, Yohji Yamamoto, Raf Simons, and BLESS—and the sensibilities of the photographers. Furthermore, it includes articles featuring Richard Prince, Isamu Noguchi, and others. This is the first issue of Purple, representing its early period, condensing the cutting-edge atmosphere of art, fashion, and photography around the year 2000 into one volume.
