Slim Aarons: Style

Glamorous fashions, personalities, and places captured by iconic photographer Slim Aarons Slim Aarons, at least according to the man himself, did not photograph fashion: &;I didn&;t do fashion. I did the people in their clothes that became the fashion.&; But despite what he claimed, Aarons&;s work is indelibly tied to fashion. Aarons&;s incredibly influential photographs of high society and socialites being unambiguously themselves are still a source of inspiration for modern day style icons. Slim Aarons: Style showcases the photographs that both recorded and influenced the luminaries of the fashion world. This volume features early black-and-white fashion photography, as well as portraits of the fashionable elite&;like Jacqueline de Ribes, C.Z. Guest, Nan Kempner, and Marisa Berenson&;and those that designed the clothes, such as Oscar de la Renta, Emilio Pucci, Mary McFadden, and Lilly Pulitzer. Featuring some never-before-seen images and detailed captions written by fashion historians, Slim Aarons: Style is a collection of the photographer's most stylish work.
