From the Visionaire website:
In 29 WOMAN we explore the multifaceted nature of woman – as model, Madonna, muse, and more. Highlights include the eight-part black-and-white series by Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin and Brana Wolf, which features supermodels in the nude, save for a Louis Vuitton cape draped here or a fur stole dangling there; Nobuyoshi Araki’s photograph of a Vanessa Beecroft performance; and Nick Knight’s life-size image, the very feminine, naked Natasha (née David). Packaged in a multiplaned, mirrored case, the issue is a vertically bound volume of red ultrasuede whose pages are filled by Cindy Sherman, Nan Goldin, Beth B, Kara Walker, Sam Taylor-Wood, Sarah Moon, Jane and Louise Wilson, Adam Fuss, Richard Phillips, David Bowie, and others.

"The alternative small run publication has often dazzled, always relentlessly focused on changing the way we look at the printed page. Looking haughtily over its shoulder to Fleur's Flair, Visionaire rolls up its sleeves, cups its hands to its mouth, flexes it muscles... Oh, I could go on all day... And whispers, "The eyes have it."
— David Bowie
