Ku, Kiss Me Darling
KU, KISS ME DARLING. THE BEST NIGHTCLUB BOOK EVER (AND THEN SOME).
Ku, Kiss Me Darling.
Published in 1992 to mark ten years of the biggest club in Ibiza. This book of KU (long since known as Privilege) is the best clubbing book ever. See for yourself here.
Heavily inspired by Fiorucci, the art direction is an angular, 1980s delight. This double page: restaurants (left) and beaches (right).
Not just a wet T-shirt competiton but a ripped wet t-shirt competition. No wonder their are Facebook groups devoted to this club.... The book is as fine a concept as the club itself. Unfortunately it's super rare and we have/had just one copy.
This image from a topless night presided over by Pedro Almodovar. The KU club was open air and centred around a swimming pool. The dress code was none existent.
Two bands are honoured in the book for their live performances... Sigue Sigue Sputnik and Talk Talk. That's all we listen to!
Have you ever looked so cool, calm and connected? Sitting poolside at Ku in your white pants? Watching the ripped wet T competition and thinking about your next cool book purchase? Maybe buy yourself Manstyle
