One of the witty photos Helmut Newton photographed in 1973 for the one and only late-lamented British Magazine, Nova, the magazine that inspired me for decades. I wrote the press release and bio for his great 1984 book, “World Without Men” and this is one of the photos I had to caption. (He writes about many of his photos in his book, and some of what he says I quote under some of the photos.)   For more on Helmut Newton, click here:

15 Soft Cubism 1979- WWD/YSL

Soft Cubsim 1979 – Inspiration

This 1979 Yves Saint Laurent sketch in Women’s Wear Daily (WWD) from his latest collection  Vidal Sassoon’s Soft Cubism campaign in 1979.  The YSL collection was a huge success I thought it an ideal idea to translate into our first campaign for Vidal Sassoon USA.
