PAT McGRATH LABS. Dark Star. Issue 006.

(No place): Pat McGrath Labs, [2017]. First edition. Softcover. 16.5 by 13.6cm. unpaginated. Very rare promotional magazine issued to accompany the launch of Pat McGrath Labs’ Dark Star 006 collection. Produced in the form of an avant-garde fashion magazine rather than a conventional cosmetics catalogue, it combines editorial photography, beauty imagery and product presentation in the distinctive visual language that established Pat McGrath Labs as one of the most influential beauty brands of the late 2010s. Conceived under the creative direction of Pat McGrath, the publication reflects the brand’s synthesis of haute couture, editorial fashion and experimental makeup, blurring the boundaries between advertising, artist’s publication and fashion ephemera. A very good copy in wrappers.
