"In a machine age, making clothes is one of the last refuges of the human, the personal, the inimitable”
~ Christian Dior
In this rare photograph taken by one of the great fashion photographers of her time you can see two masters at work. Mr. Dior at the top of his craft in this exquisite coat matched only by the mastery of Lillian’s ability to create magic in this collaboration with one of her favourite models, the great Barbara Mullen.
Lillian Bassman's work is included in our current exhibition, The Fashion Show, on view in our Santa Monica gallery until October 7th, 2023.
