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.
Slim Aarons (1916-2006) was among his generation' s most influential photographers. His photographs have appeared in countless magazines, including Town & Country, Life, and Holiday. Shawn Waldron is an archivist and curator with nearly 20 years of experience. Based in New York, he is currently the manager of the Slim Aarons Archive as well as the lead curator for the Getty Images Gallery, London, where he is responsible for a robust exhibition program that includes ten or more photography-based exhibitions annually. Kate Betts has been covering the world of style for 25 years, first as a reporter in the Paris bureau of Women' s Wear Daily, and later as an editor at Vogue, Harper' s Bazaar, and Time magazine. The youngest person ever to serve as editor in chief of Harper' s Bazaar, she is also the author of My Paris Dream and Everyday Icon: Michelle Obama and the Power of Style. Betts lives in New York with her husband, the writer Chip Brown, and their two children.
