A great collection of photographs of Jean Shrimpton  illustrating the Avedon "free-moving" style of fashion photography that, just a few short years prior, saw most studio fashion photography highly-posed - models appearing stiff and wooden with exaggerated posturing. We think Avedon's work for the Harper's Bazaar September issues are collections of fine art.
