Peter Lindbergh.Dior (Taschen 40th Edition) - Martin Harrison

A Legendary Collaboration: Lindbergh and Dior

Peter Lindbergh, one of fashion’s most iconic photographers, shared a profound creative bond with the House of Dior. From capturing exceptional muses like Marion Cotillard and Charlize Theron to defining campaigns for Lady Dior and J’Adore, Lindbergh’s lens immortalized Dior’s unparalleled elegance.

A Groundbreaking Project in Times Square

In a bold and historic move, Dior entrusted Lindbergh with garments spanning 70 years of haute couture for an ambitious project set against the dynamic backdrop of Times Square. The result is a stunning fusion of timeless fashion and the frenetic energy of New York City. Alek Wek, draped in the iconic 1947 Bar suit, and models like Saskia de Brauw and Karen Elson, bring Dior’s creations to life amidst the bustling cityscape.

A Masterpiece of Fashion Photography

This exquisite volume showcases 165 never-before-seen images from the Times Square shoot, where Lindbergh’s signature monochrome and color photography captures the intricacies and silhouettes of Dior’s designs. From Christian Dior’s early creations to Maria Grazia Chiuri’s contemporary couture, every piece is rendered with striking depth and artistry.

A Tribute to Two Creative Icons

Beyond the Times Square project, the book features over 100 additional photographs of Dior’s work, originally published in prestigious magazines like Vogue and Harper’s Bazaar. With contributions from Lindbergh’s long-time collaborator Juan Gatti and an introduction by Martin Harrison, this volume honors the photographer’s enduring relationship with the Parisian fashion house.
