Haute Couture

In 2001, French publisher Les Requins Marteaux released Haute Couture, a single-issue comic written and illustrated by Olivier Besseron. This self-contained work offers a satirical, surreal look at the fashion world, showcasing Besseron’s distinctive, grotesque art style and his sharp, absurdist humor. Though brief, the comic stands as a memorable, cult oddity from the early 2000s French independent comics scene.
