"The truly fashionable are beyond Fashion”
~ Cecil Beaton
1904-1980
ENQUIRE ABOUT THIS WORK
Cecil would have known this better than anyone because no one spent more time amongst the beautiful and fashionable than he did. Even Andy Warhol couldn’t come close. Cecil was indeed borrowing a line from one of my favorite groups, The Kinks...“A dedicated follower of fashion”.
This is to my mind is his greatest achievement. Nine famous models including Dorian Leigh and Carmen Dell'Orefice modeling the exquisite clothes of Charles James, posed together in the beautiful French panelled room of French & Company’s New York showroom in 1948. Who could ask for anything more?
