Мода, гламур

Два художники, одне бачення. Роботи Інез ван Ламсверде та Вінуда Матадіна, що кидають виклик жанру

Роботи Інез ван Ламсверде та Вінуда Матадіна прикрашали стіни та сторінки найкращих галерей та модних журналів світу. Якщо вас дивує, що їхні фотографії легко перетинаються між цими світами, то це завдяки їхній легкості у створенні образів, які знаходять своє місце як у культурно елітних, так і в мейнстрімних виданнях.

Для деяких своїх фотографій, таких як портрет Бйорк або рекламна кампанія для Givenchy, ван Ламсверде та Матадін працювали у співпраці з арт-директорами M/M (Париж), які також розробили цю розкішну тритомну ретроспективу. Це видання озирається на «практично все», над чим фотографи працювали понад два десятиліття, що вивело їх на передовий план як у сфері мистецтва, так і моди.

Тритомний комплект містить понад 600 зображень творчості Інез та Вінудха, а також інтерв'ю та пояснювальні тексти, а також оригінальний плакат, нанесений шовкографією, складений орігамі у верхньому кутку футляра.

Обмежене колекційне видання 1000 примірників (№ 201–1200), кожен з яких пронумерований та підписаний художниками.

A marvelously illustrated look at the world and the work of Isabella Blow, a central figure in the contemporary fashion world.

From her early days bringing legendary artists such as Michel Basquiat into the offices of American Vogue to the twenty-first-century drama of her televised attempted takeover of the Indian and Middle-Eastern fashion industries, the awesome Isabella Blow pushed boundaries in the fashion world, using her personality as her most offensive weapon. Famous for discovering talents such as Alexander McQueen, Sophie Dahl, and Hussein Chalayan, she nurtured and inspired artists and designers across the industry, as well as serving as muse to the well-known milliner Philip Treacy. She was also a unique stylist, collaborating with major photographers such as Sean Ellis and Robert Astley Sparke on infamous shoots that combined gothic and erotic.

Martina Rink has brought together all those who were moved, influenced, discovered, and inspired by Isabella, in a volume that celebrates not only her life but also her outrageous personality, which left an indelible mark on all who met her. Texts and personal letters written exclusively for this book have been collected from legendary names in the fashion world, from Mario Testino and Manolo Blahnik to Hussein Chalayan and Anna Wintour. There are photographs by some of fashion’s greatest photographers, including Rankin, Donald McPherson, and Richard Burbridge, and illustrations by Hilary Knight and Paul Smith, in a homage to Isabella that celebrates her astonishing life.

Divided into four chapters, from the 50s to the 90s, the book brings together the major photographs of a creator who left his imprint on a generation with prolific work in the fields of fashion, advertising, and portrait photography.

Divided into four chapters, from the 50s to the 90s, the book brings together the major photographs of a creator who left his imprint on a generation with prolific work in the fields of fashion, landscape, advertising, and portrait photography. Sieff's art testifies to his tireless quest to capture the fleeting beauty of "temps perdu," or "time which cannot recur."

About the photographer:

Jeanloup Sieff (1933–2000) was one of the most highly regarded art, fashion, portraiture photographers of his generation, who worked mainly in black and white. After photgraphic studies in his native Paris he travelled the world working for Magnum, before settling in New York during the 1960s, working for Esquire, Glamour, Vogue and Harper's Bazaar. He was awarded the Chevalier des Arts et Lettres in 1981, and his work was exhibited in museums and galleries around the world.

A striking tribute to John Galliano's highly creative collections for his eponymous label (1996–2011), captured behind the scenes by American Vogue photographer Robert Fairer

Robert Fairer – American Vogue’s exclusive backstage photographer for over a decade – opens up his archive to unveil stunning photographs that were, until now, one of fashion’s best-kept secrets.

Presenting John Galliano’s creations for his eponymous label (1996–2011), John Galliano: Unseen celebrates the visionary and exquisitely multi-layered collections that acted as a showcase for the designer’s romantic, theatrical, radical ideas, granting rare behind-the-scenes access to a highly charged world of fantasy, collaboration and beauty.

The first book to celebrate the irreverent and original style of Katharine Hepburn -- icon of stage and screen.

Glamorous when she wanted to be and tomboyish when she didn’t, Katharine Hepburn developed her personal style and public image as a style rebel. Whether on stage, on screen, or in private life, Hepburn had a firm grasp on the power of her appearance. Rather than submit to studio image makers, she controlled her image and drew on her own proclivities to create a distinct antifashion persona.

This book presents the famously headstrong star in a new light: as a style icon. Through images of Hepburn’s on-screen and off-screen wardrobes and essays by top fashion historians, this book reveals how modern Hepburn’s insouciance and idiosyncratic manner of dressing really was and shows her as an inspirational, self-styled counterpoint to the over-managed looks of celebrities today.

Full of never-before-published images of Hepburn’s costumes and personal wardrobe, Katharine Hepburn is a refreshing look at a true fashion original.

Оновлена ​​книга, присвячена селфі-фотографіям Кім Кардаш'ян, містить шістдесят чотири нові сторінки з останніми знімками дітей Кім, її найближчої родини та деяких найвидатніших особистостей світу.

З самого початку своєї кар'єри стиліста гардеробу Кім Кардаш'ян катапультувалася до статусу однієї з найвідоміших знаменитостей Голлівуду. Багато хто (включно з дизайнером Givenchy Ріккардо Тіші) називає її сучасною Мерилін Монро, і вона стала справжньою американською іконою. Завдяки своєму пишному стилю, успішному реаліті-шоу «Сімейство Кардаш'ян», магазину одягу DASH, лінійкам косметики та парфумів, а також DVD-дискам для тренувань, вона здобула величезну кількість шанувальників, яких налічується кілька мільйонів. Через Instagram, Twitter та Facebook Кім щодня спілкується зі своїми легіонами шанувальників, ділячись подробицями свого життя за допомогою селфі-фотографій. Кім, яку широко вважають піонером руху селфі — автопортрета цифрової епохи, опанувала мистецтво робити вражаючі та дуже особисті фотографії себе.

Цей оновлений том представляє 64 нові сторінки з деякими з улюблених селфі Кім — від її улюблених старих знімків та сучасних ультрасексуальних гламурних знімків до нещодавно зроблених селфі з Сереною Вільямс, Гілларі Клінтон та президентом Бараком Обамою — «Егоїстичний» пропонує читачам зазирнути за лаштунки цієї неймовірної зірки. Це перероблене та розширене видання містить раніше неопубліковані знімки її дітей та найближчої родини.

Про автора:

Кім Кардаш'ян Вест, новоспечена мама доньки Норт та щасливо одружена з репером Каньє Вестом, перебуває на вершині світу, і ця колекція ретельно відібраних знімків з її особистого архіву є даниною поваги її шанувальникам, які підтримували її протягом її дуже широко розрекламованої подорожі.

When Fedrico Fellini first began shooting his film in the Via Veneto, he probably never imagined that he would create a new era in fashion and in world cinema. At the end of the 50s, Rome had become a crossroads, witnessing the transit of international stars, famous singers, actors, emerging stars, starlets, the sex symbol industry, politicians, princes, princesses and billionaires. With these players, Italian nights became the symbol of a "sweet and lazy" way of life, made up of fashion and gossip, paparazzi and tabloid scandal, relationships and forbidden love. From Rome to Portofino, from Capri to Venice, the Italian jet set was the epitome of this phenomenon. A new photographic book tells the story of those Italian years and its unforgettable icons, from Fellini to Anita Ekberg, Ava Gardner, Liz Taylor, Brigitte Bardot and Soraya. Documenting, amongst other things, striptease and elite parties, the book includes 600 rare images rediscovered and selected from Scalarchives in Italy and Europe to accompany the text by Italian journalist Marco Gasparini.

Rome in the 60s: Anita Ekberg posing in the Trevi Fountain, Audrey Hepburn taking her Yorkshire Terrier for a walk through Roman streets and Brigitte Bardot smiling seductively for the camera. Life in Italy in the late 1950s and early 1960s was characterized by the "Dolce Vita", with Rome the favoured hot spot of the international Jet Set. By the time Federico Fellini had released his film of the same name in 1960, the reputation of the "sweet life" was assured.

"La Dolce Vita" in earBOOK format brings the legend back to life with portraits of many famous stars of the era.

Music CDs: Two CDs provide the perfect musical accompaniment to the photographic collection: one featuring the original soundtrack to "La Dolce Vita" and the other a selection of Italian hits from the period.

Through the 1950s and the early 1960s, fashion photographer Lillian Bassman worked with fashion magazines and Madison Avenue Advertising agencies to create a potent vision of women's lingerie: brassieres and bodices; corsets and girdles; camisoles and chemises; nightgowns and pajamas. Using the era's supermodels, she perfectly visualised a feminine ideal and captured women's imaginations. Fifty years later these images have lost none of their allure and the enormous cultural impact of the TV show Mad Men has given them new currency.

About the Author

Lillian Bassman, is a prominent and respected figure in the world of fashion photographers. Her signature style, once described by legendary photographer Richard Avedon as making "visible that heartbreaking invisible place between the appearance and the disappearance of things" offers a sensuous and intimate vision of modern women.

The world through Linda's eyes. A retrospective of Linda McCartney's life and photography

In 1966, during a brief stint as a receptionist for Town and Country magazine, Linda Eastman snagged a press pass to a very exclusive promotional event for the Rolling Stones aboard a yacht on the Hudson River; her fresh, candid photographs of the band were far superior to the formal shots made by the band’s official photographer, and she was instantly on the way to making a name for herself as a top rock ’n’ roll photographer. In May 1968, with her portrait of Eric Clapton, she entered the record books as the first female photographer to have her work featured on the cover of Rolling Stone. During her tenure as the leading photographer of the late 1960s’ musical scene, she captured many of rock’s most important musicians on film, including Aretha Franklin, Jimi Hendrix, Bob Dylan, Janis Joplin, Simon & Garfunkel, The Who, The Doors, and the Grateful Dead. In 1967, Linda went to London to document the "Swinging Sixties," where she met Paul McCartney at the Bag ’O Nails club and subsequently photographed The Beatles during a launch event for the Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band album. Paul and Linda fell in love, and were married on March 12, 1969. For the next three decades, until her untimely death, she devoted herself to her family, vegetarianism, animal rights, and photography.

From her early rock ’n’ roll portraits, through the final years of The Beatles, via touring with Wings to raising four children with Paul, Linda captured her whole world on film. Her shots range from spontaneous family pictures to studio sessions with Stevie Wonder and Michael Jackson, as well as artists Willem de Kooning and Gilbert and George. Always unassuming and fresh, her work displays a warmth and feeling for the precise moment that captures the essence of any subject. Whether photographing her children, celebrities, animals, or a fleeting moment of everyday life, she did so without pretension or artifice.

This retrospective volume - selected from her archive of over 200,000 images - is produced in close collaboration with Paul McCartney and their children. Included are forewords by Paul, Stella, and Mary McCartney. As such, it is a moving personal journal and a lasting testament to Linda’s talent.

A landmark fashion photography monograph chronicling the most famous and sought-after brand in the world

Since the 1920s, the images of Louis Vuitton-both advertising and editorial-have drawn the world into its ethereal, luxurious identity and have changed the way we see fashion, travel, art, and culture. These captivating touchstones of fashion photography have served as a glamorous, romantic porthole to one of the world's most prestigious luxury brands.

Louis Vuitton Fashion Photography is an unprecedented visual history of the company, seen through its presence in photographs.

This exceptional album features over two hundred images by the most important modern and contemporary photographers, including David Bailey, Henry Clarke, Patrick Demarchelier, Karl Lagerfeld, Annie Leibovitz, Helmut Newton, David Sims, Bert Stern, Juergen Teller, Mario Testino, and Bruce Weber.

This book features images from iconic Vuitton advertising campaigns from the '20s through to the present, with magazine editorials from publications including Vogue, L'Officiel, Numero, V, Harper's Bazaar, Interview, W, Egoiste, Love, and Pop.

This elegantly designed mix creates a unique and exciting expression of the brand and its interpretation by top stylists and fashion editors.

Chronicling the style, history, and exquisite fashion through lavish, evocative photography, this volume is an absolute essential for lovers of fashion, art, and photography.

Loulou de la Falaise is the first monograph to celebrate the life and work of the style icon and muse of Yves Saint Laurent, who became the embodiment of French chic. Renowned for her bohemian chic, daring style as well as for her lightness, nonchalance, and humor, Loulou de la Falaise was not only an influential fashion icon but also a breath of fresh air to the world of Parisian haute couture. The Anglo-French beauty assisted the designer Halston and modeled briefly for Diana Vreeland’s Vogue before moving to Paris in 1972 to work alongside the iconic designer Yves Saint Laurent.

A true original, her sense of color and fantasy and her attitude would energize the mythic house and fashion in general. For almost forty years, de la Falaise would forge her professional reputation designing extraordinary jewelry and accessories both for Yves Saint Laurent as well as for her own line. This elegant volume is a life in pictures, with over 400 images by legendary contemporary photographers, from Helmut Newton and Richard Avedon to Steven Meisel and Bettina Rheims, as well as an essay by Pierre Bergé and interviews with Loulou intimates such as Betty Catroux, Inès de la Fressange, Diane von Furstenberg, Christian Louboutin, Elsa Peretti, Paloma Picasso, André Leon Talley, and Oscar de la Renta.

A celebrated style icon from the ’60s until her death, Loulou's appetite and flair for fashion continues to be an inspiration today.

About the Authors:

Ariel de Ravenel is a Paris-based fashion consultant who runs Loulou de la Falaise’s brand and works with designer Olivier Theyskens. Natasha Fraser-Cavassoni is the Paris-based author of Sam Spiegel, Tino Zervudachi: A Portfolio, and Dior Glamour.
