- Summary:
- Before the live streaming of international catwalk shows and the instant culture of digital reproduction, you had to be there. Alongside the black-clad fashion editors, buyers and front row celebrities were the photographers: unsung heroes of fashion who captured the moments that would go on to provide our record of fashion as it happened. A visual journey through three decades of photographing shows in Paris, Milan, London and New York, Fashion's Front Line showcases the extraordinary work of catwalk photographer Niall McInerney. Giving readers the complete picture, the book captures many rare and never-before-seen images of iconic moments on the runway, famous faces on front row, the atmosphere backstage and dazzling after-show parties. With commentary from the photographer himself, as well as interviews with the fashion insiders, Fashion's Front Line is a unique window onto the world of late 20th-century fashion. As good as a front row ticket, this book will be a must-have for fashion lovers and scholars alike.
