Through a collection of Hedi Slimane's photographs of the 2000s, this book presents the journey of the iconic designer into fashion before, during, and after his tenures at Yves Saint¬Laurent and Christian Dior. In a 2003 conversation with 'Interview's' Ingrid Sischy, Slimane discussed his beginnings as a photographer: 'I started taking pictures before I even began in fashion. I didn't start with clothes until I was 16, but I had my first camera when I was 11. I've always taken pictures, almost like some people take notes or write down their thoughts.' These four volumes reveal that Slimane's duotone photographs are as fresh as his paradigm¬shifting work in fashion. They reveal his inspirations, his attention to both youth culture and classical references, and attest to the strength of his contribution to haute couture.
