Mini Story or Hook

A stylish snapshot of British fashion and society at the beginning of the 2000s, this July 2002 issue of Harpers & Queen features actress and model Talisa Soto on the cover and in a substantial fashion and interview feature photographed by Diego Uchitel.

Beyond its striking Y2K cover, the issue is packed with period fashion, jewellery, beauty, travel, interiors, theatre and society photography. Of particular interest is the illustrated art feature “Farewell, My Lovely”, discussing Picasso and Matisse and their complicated relationships with the women who appeared throughout their lives and work.

Now more than two decades old, original fashion magazines such as this have become collectible pieces of Y2K fashion and popular-culture history, particularly when retaining their original covers and advertising.
