Merde is a self-deprecating publication that reflects on fashion’s cultural landscape by exploring the creative process without a filter. With the aim to disrupt tired fashion narratives, each issue picks a theme to explore—in all seriousness. 

With this issue, Merde are switching to an annual publishing schedule, so this is a new, larger-format version. Their biggest issue yet look at survival as a theme and features cover stars Paulina Porizkova photographed by Etienne Baret in Paris, France, and Quenlin Blackwell photographed by Jasmine Rutledge in Los Angeles, California.
