<p>It's not typical of Fashion Week to have a magazine upstage the wonders on the runways, but that may be the case this year. Dasha Zhukova's explosive new art glossy <em>Garage </em>comes on the heels of her stewardship of <em>Pop</em> magazine, and when it drops in a few weeks you will hear chatter of it outside Lincoln Center. There might even be a launch party.<!--more--></p>
<p>In <em>The New York Times</em>' Styles today, <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2011/08/25/fashion/art-and-fashion-in-dasha-zhukovas-garage.html">E</a><a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2011/08/25/fashion/art-and-fashion-in-dasha-zhukovas-garage.html">ric Wilson takes a spin through the magazines pages.</a> In case there wasn't enough hype, Mr. Wilson dubs <em>Garage </em>"one of the most intriguing magazines to come along in years."</p>
<p>And why is that? Perhaps it's the Alexander McQueen dress made of lettuce. Or the Prada dress that's strung-together citrus fruits, or the featured Moncler garment. That look is simply anchovies.</p>
<p>Though the main stir comes from one particular cover image. It is a photo by Hedi Slimane, <a href="http://www.observer.com/2011/08/courtney-love-has-a-mothers-concern-for-frances-beans-tattoos/">whose stunning shots of Frances Bean Cobain recently blew up all over fashion blogs,</a> of a crotch bare save for a tattoo. It's a butterfly designed by Damien Hirst, and to see it you have to peel off a sticker affixed to the cover, <em>Velvet Underground &amp; Nico</em>-style (Warhol reference? Check).</p>
<p>And though there's no mention of her in the <em>Times </em>article, Page Six's item on <em>Garage </em><a href="http://www.nypost.com/p/pagesix/hirst_body_of_work_PmTVuiHetL81FqManBSxoK">lists Tavi Gevinson, tween-aged fashionista extraordinaire, as one of the contributors.</a> Your move, Jane Pratt.</p>
<p>There are two other covers that do not feature hardcore nudity, and one of them --starring model Lily Donaldson as a puppet in a dollhouse -- is below. It will probably the best magazine named <em>Garage </em>in history, <a href="http://www.observer.com/2011/07/other-magazines-with-the-same-name-as-dasha-zhukovas-garage/">and there have been plenty of them.</a></p>
