PHOTOGRAPHER: NORMAN PARKINSON
Norman Parkinson's July 1939 Harper's Bazaar photoshoot with Pamela Minchin is a classic embodiment of his innovative 'action realism' in fashion photography. On the Isle of Wight, he captured Minchin in a Fortnum and Mason swimsuit, with his signature style of spontaneous elegance and choreographed spontaneity, breaking away from the era's static studio poses. His work marked a shift, bringing a naturalistic energy to fashion imagery that influenced generations of photographers.
