Stoppers: Photographs from My Life at Vogue

Great book

Incredible book from a great list of pioneer fashion photographers. HELMUT NEWTON, DEMARCHELIER, IRVING PENN TO NAME A FEW. Need I say more?This is what fashion imagery is about: Incredible models, creative bold talented photographers and some bold arty concepts, especially from Irving Penn: the selection of Penn's works in this book is well thought out and offers a great range showcasing his many talents.Some are with models, some with 'masked' models where art meets fashion at its best. How could he make such an incredible image out of a model standing in potato/coffee sacks? But he did and it is stunning. and there are many more like this in this book.Incredible make ups and styling in so many images. A real must for any supermodel, fashion photography fans out there. And the cover which I am very familiar with being a hardcore Nadja fan myself is absolute perfection.at £20.99 an incredible bargain for a book that will stand the test of time.

Absolutely stunning book. Full of creative, inspired, varied imagery. This book really shows photography at Vogue at it's best. Irving Penn is one of my all time favourites, so I was excited to see his 'portion' was the biggest. The book is dedicated to him so I can see why. In books like this, there's often a few images or even whole sections I don't really enjoy, but I can genuinely say every image in here is great.The book itself if fantastically weighty, nice thick pages and the hardbound cover adds to the overall sense of quality. Highly recommend!

Insanely fabulous book of fashion and photography that inspires at every level. A career at Vogue working with the greats. A wonderful addition to book lovers of style.

Beautiful!

This was given as a gift, and the recipient, who is a photographer was absolutely delighted with it

I love fashion and I was looking forward to seeing some incredible couture because of the misleading title referencing Vogue magazine. Instead I got a book full of subversive fetishistic nudes with the occasional dead animal carcass thrown in for shock value. All very artistically done, of course, but it exploits women all the same. We are told that Mario Testino “makes everyone around him feel good”, which seems like black humour in the light of his recent sexual harassment charges. This book is artistic titillation for perverts rather than purist fashionistas.

Von diversen Könnern mit der Kamera eindrucksvoll in Szene gesetzt. Kann man sich einiges abgucken.

Veloce e in perfette condizioni

As a fashion/beauty photographer myself, I was so excited to get lost in these images...but to my delight, there were the most amazing stories to accompany some of the fascinating images from some of the greatest fashion photographers we've ever been blessed with! How often do we find ourselves saying "Oh, to be a fly on the wall during this shoot." Well, this book doesn't disappoint! We get a first-hand account of what it's like to be on set with one of the greats and a bit of a look into their psyche. It's truly fascinating.

Gorgeous book. Great quality paper, small annotations/quotes throughout. It’s something I definitely want to have in my collection as a photographer.As a side note, I’ve been reading it occasionally and always been gentle with it but about 6 months into its life, the binding has started to come apart at the seams. Unfortunate...
