'S Wonderful, 'S Marvelous Wednesday, January 16, 2008 1:49 AM

While re-watching Funny Face, I was reminded that Richard Avedon had done a fair bit of fashion photography. I'm mostly familiar with his portraiture work -- the black and white full-frame images against a stark white background.

As the end credits began to roll, I googled him. Still in a 1957 mood, I was primarily interested in viewing his earlier work. The photographs above and below range from 1946 - 1965.

I would've liked to see more of his colour work, but could only find two images.
