New York downtown alive

Maripol's book is amazing look at downtown New York City's underground scene during the 1980's.

Early 80s fashion fans utopia...

This book is an amazing insight into the New York fashion scene in the early eighties. With so many stars looking fabulous either before they were famous or just as their celebrity careers were about to take off. Madonna, Debbie Mazar, the B52s, Blondie and Grace Jones are just a few of the familiar faces in the hundreds of personal and candid Polaroid shots that innovative stylist, Maripol took at that magical time and place in fashion history. I have always said that if i could go back in time to any one time or place in history i would have gone to NY in the late 70s early 80s... this book has only increased my desire. I would highly recommned this book to fans of 80s pop culture, lovers of 70s/80s fashion and styling, Madonna fans (for the rare Madonna pics) and anyone who ever fell in love with New York.
