Beautiful Women
Today women are led to believe that beauty can only be achieved through the latest diet, exercise craze, miracle potion, or surgical procedure. In this era of physical perfection, it is sometimes hard to remember that beauty shines from within. It is the untold stories of lifelong experiences-the light, love, hardships, and successes that pour out of the body-that make a person beautiful. Beautiful Women focuses on the life experiences of thirty-five women, of all ages, and what has truly made them beautiful in their present moment. They are the mothers, daughters, wives, and neighbors you see every day-at school and work, in the grocery store, in a doctor's office waiting room, or walking through a mall. Through their stories, women can realize that they are not alone in their insecurity and quest for self-acceptance. These women redefine the word "beauty" by showing us that what makes us beautiful is how we choose to face both the trivial and monumental moments in our lives.
Women of Singular Beauty
A celebration of Chanel haute couture photographed by one of fashion's most acclaimed hotographers. As the fashion cognoscenti would say, there's magic in true haute couture--the creations that entail thousands of hours of handwork, crafting, embellishing. In an exclusive shoot with the house of Chanel, photographer Cathleen Naundorf gained rare access to their physical archives to photograph couture gowns against theatrical backdrops. The result: a book of ethereal, cinematic photographs that capture the exquisiteness of the ensembles and the magical allure of haute couture. This is what sartorial dreams are made of. For more than two decades, Naundorf has used her expert photographic skills to pay homage to the haute couture aesthetic. Combining her experiences in travel, art, and photojournalism, Naundorf elaborately arranges each detail of her photographs, using storyboards and extensively researching the lighting, setting, backdrops, props, hairpieces, makeup, and design for every image. Each photograph is a singular vision suggesting romance, surrealism, exoticism, and above all else, fantasy.
