Published by Steidl in 1998. Hardcover with glassene cover in the heavy card slipcase. Alaia photographed by Paolo Roversi, Mondino, Peter Lindbergh and Bruce Weber. This book was well taken care of and is almost perfect condition - a couple of spots on the slipcase, but the book itself is mint. This is a LARGE book - 15x11x2 and nearly 9lbs. This is an original 1998 Limited Edition, not the reprint. See last photo.
