"Founded in 1972, W magazine has been capturing the cultural zeitgeist for 50 years. To celebrate the milestone, this volume enlists the magazine’s many friends to curate a collection of W’s most iconic moments. With gorgeous shots, thought-provoking extracts, and a whole chapter dedicated to Kate Moss, it’s a likely hit with the fashion conscious and followers of art and culture." —NEW YORK MAGAZINE

"Allow us, for a moment, to toot our own horn. For the past five decades, as the fashion and publishing industries have been dramatically transformed, W has held firm on its essential mission: larger-than-life storytelling. That doesn’t mean, of course, that the magazine hasn’t evolved over time. Fifty Years Fifty Stories, a new tome published by Rizzoli, out this month, tracks key moments in the publication’s history." —W MAGAZINE

"W Magazine has given cutting edge, fashion-forward photography, design, and cultural history a home in its pages and on its iconic covers since 1972. Now a glitzy new book gathers 50 favorites featuring talent radiating from both sides of the lens — from Richard Prince working out his appropriation game to Steven Meisel taking the mickey out of advertising tropes — plus zeitgeisty captures of the 70’s party scene and the supermodel canon." —LA WEEKLY
