Book: Dior Images – Paolo Roversi in Bloomington, MN

The poetic atmosphere in Paolo Roversi's delicate images lends a unique style to the Christian Dior models. The celebrated photographer's photos have a lyrical and supernatural quality, revealing the silhouettes of treasured models like Naomi Campbell, Natalia Vodianova, Laetitia Casta, Eva Herzigova and actress Natalie Portman. Behind the official images published in the biggest fashion magazines lie unpublished images from each photo shoot. Handwritten notes from the photographer and his favorite models embellish these pages and the story within them. The text is written by Emanuele Coccia, an Italian philosopher specializing in the status and power of images, while the preface is by Grace Coddington. The combination of these two leading names from the world of fashion contributes to making this book a true collector's item that will appeal to both haute couture and photography enthusiasts.
