Guest Art Director Marc Jacobs teamed up with photographers Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott on the newest installment of the coveted fashion quarterly, Visionaire, which comes housed this time in a limited-edition Louis Vuitton case designed by Jacobs.


For Visionaire 52 PRIVATE, the third issue sponsored by Louis Vuitton, photographers Mert Alas & Marcus Piggott — known for their relentlessly glossy imagery — present a series of work that was decidedly more gritty. PRIVATE seeks to capture fleeting, intimate moments with celebrities and supermodels like Lindsay Lohan, Gisele Bündchen, Marc Jacobs, Drew Barrymore, Naomi Campbell, and Chloë Sevigny, making for rare, risqué, uncalculated photographs of some of the most famous people in the world. Shot on closed sets on which only the subjects and the two photographers were present, PRIVATE showcases Mert & Marcus’s uncanny ability to show men and women not just at their sexiest, but also at their most intensely personal.
