Without DJ, as issued. Presents, in its First Edition format, "Icons of Style: A Century of Fashion Photography". Persuasively demonstrates that fashion = fashion photography. You cannot have one without the other, and no one champions the fact more than the fashion designers themselves. The late great designer Karl Lagerfeld pursued a parallel career as a photographer that he deemed as important as his fashion. "The French publisher Lucien Vogel challenged Edward Steichen to create the first artistic, rather than merely documentary, fashion photograph, a moment that is now considered to be a turning point in the history of fashion photography. As fashion changed over the next century, so did the photography of fashion: Richard Avedon encouraged his models to express their personalities by smiling and laughing, which had often been discouraged previously. Helmut Newton brought an explosion of sexuality into fashion images and turned the tables on traditional gender stereotypes in the 1970's. In the 1980's, Bruce Weber and Herb Ritts made male sexuality an important part of fashion photography. Includes more than three hundred photographs by the genre's most famous practitioners as well as lesser-known figures alongside a selection of costumes, fashion illustrations, magazine covers, and advertisements" (Publisher's blurb).

What has permanently displaced photojournalism, previously the dominant photographic genre, as the second most influential photographic genre of our time (second only to street photography, the "fantasy" to the street's "reality"). This brilliant book shows that the world's greatest photographers (among the pioneers being Andre Kertesz, Edward Steichen, Man Ray, George Platt Lynes, and Diane Arbus) worked in fashion, among other fashion-photography milestones: The first fashion photographer was Baron Adolph de Meyer, an amateur who popularized the style known as Pictorialism. Edward Steichen's proto-Minimalism helped break photography's dependence on painting and find its own voice. Martin Munkacsi and Alexey Brodovitch ("Ballet") mastered the depiction of movement and motion in a still medium. Then you have: Cecil Beaton, Richard Avedon, Irving Penn, David Bailey, Guy Bourdin, Helmut Newton, Saul Leiter (recently re-discovered), Bob Richardson, and Bruce Weber, among innumerable others, whose evocative, innovative, and sensual photographs reflect - and often surpass - the great Modernist themes of film and literature. An absolute "must-have" title for photography collectors. This title is a great photography book.
