Changes: Zink Magazine

Revision as of 22:46, 6 March 2016

Zink Magazine, styled Z!nK, is an American fashion magazine, first published in 2002.

For the publication's December 2005/January 2006 Holiday issue, photographer Mike Ruiz shot a fashion shoot with Miss Piggy, titled "Sow Fabulous." Official notes from the photo shoot call for:

a "Warhol Kermit" and a "Edie Piggy"
Piggy inspired by Nastassja Kinski
Piggy inspired by Sid and Nancy

Although produced, the latter two never made it into the publication. Mike Ruiz eventually released the Kinski spoof "Miss Piggy and the Serpent" on his official website as part of his portfolio, and fashion designer Keanan Duffty posted a behind-the-scenes version of the Sid and Nancy inspired photo on his blog years later. A third, previously unreleased photo from the shoot appears here on Muppet Wiki for the first time, courtesy of Zink Magazine.
