A baby Lauren Bacall in Harper's Bazaar 1945. |
Here is a little collection of photographs of models and artwork by one of my favourite photographers Louise Dahl-Wolfe. All these images come from Harper' Bazaar between 1950-59. In her early years Dahl-Wolfe had studied painting and design at university, which I like to think she drew influence upon in these wonderful editorials. Dahl-Wolfe is on point with her combination of art and fashion and I love the similarities between high 1950's fashion and Modernist paintings.
