Horvat Frank's photographs ( history of fashion )

Peering out from between an organic swathe of organza and a milliner's cascade of petals, the model seems to float on a backround of racegoers. Male and female, black and white this 1958 shot for jardin des modes is an exercise in contrast.
Frank Horvat was seminal for fashion photography, using natural make up and pastoral backdrops rather than the revailing mood of urban formality.
He was a photojournalist and his first cover for magazine appeared in 1951 for  Italian Epoca.
This experience has benefited his fashion work iving a broad quality to technically adept images that catch the eye.
