A collection of the lavish and iconic gowns of Christian Dior, from the 1950s and ’60s, captured by the legendary photographer Mark Shaw. Iconic photographer Mark Shaw documented the ultra-exclusive Parisian fashion world, focusing on Paris’s long-standing top couturier Christian Dior. Shaw’s photographs—some of the first fashion photographs ever shot in color—capture the most stunning and extraordinary fashion of the era. This lavish volume embodies the glamour of that time, from rare moments of Christian Dior during fittings to editorial-style photographs of models, socialites, and actresses posing in Dior’s ballgowns, day suits, and haute couture collections. Shaw’s photojournalistic style changed fashion photography forever: his approach was to photograph wide, giving the subject a sense of context, creating an environment as exquisitely transformative as the subject and garment. With an eye for intimacy and opulence, this book features more than 200 color and black-and-white photographs, many never published before, having only recently been found in a secret vault by his estate. Dior Glamour: 1952–1962 captures the drama and elegance of the period’s style and will be treasured by lovers of photography, fashion, style, history, and cultured living.
Mark Shaw Poradie kníh (chronologicky)
Pre Marka A. Shawa, ktorý vyrastal v betónovom, mestskom prostredí Baltimoru v Marylande, sa pestovala silnejšia vášeň pre to, čoho mal málo – divočinu a vidiek. Toto prostredie v ňom tiež podnietilo bujnú predstavivosť a podmanivú kreativitu, a tak začal v ranom veku vytvárať príbehy vo svojej mysli. Mark čerpá inšpiráciu z celoživotných dobrodružstiev, od svojho detstva s čarovnou paličkou a dekou, ktoré sa stali jeho magickými nástrojmi na ovládanie vetra, až po svoj súčasný život vo Vancouveri B.C., kde sa prechádza neďalekými lesmi a hájmi, podobnými tým, ktoré sú zobrazené v jeho prvom románe. Jeho tvorivý proces je hlboko zakorenený v jeho osobných zážitkoch a túžbe po spojení s prírodou, čo čitateľom prináša jedinečný pohľad na svet.

In 1953, Paramount was making a film with a new actress named Audrey Hepburn. Life magazine assigned one of its top young photographers, Mark Shaw, to shoot a feature, and he spent weeks with the star on and around the set. Shaw's extraordinary level of access resulted in an amazing array of photos and over 60 rolls of film that captured the budding ing�nue's charm and grace on set and in everyday life. The images chronicled Hepburn waking up at home, having her hair washed at the beauty parlor, reading, relaxing, studying the script, chatting with her costars and director Billy Wilder, and acting in one of her most famous roles. Through the handful of photographs published in Life for the Sabrina article have become iconic images of Hepburn, the majority of the negatives were misplaced and never published. Rediscovered 50 years later, these photographs offer a stunning visual biography of Hepburn's youth and rising star.
