Guy Bourdin for Charles Jourdan explores the extraordinary creative collaboration between renowned surrealist fashion photographer Guy Bourdin and innovative shoe designer Charles Jourdan. Their partnership during the dynamic late 1960s and early 1970s revolutionized fashion photography, capturing the essence of French couture with strikingly modern, provocative, and surreal visuals.
Showcasing over 150 images—many published for the first time—this volume highlights the genius of Bourdin’s dramatic mise-en-scènes and his ability to transform Jourdan’s designs into symbols of fetishism and allure. The compositions, often focused on disembodied legs and feet, are vivid, playful, and erotic, drawing the viewer into their humor and unsettling beauty.
This comprehensive collection celebrates the artistic dialogue between two visionaries whose work continues to shape modern fashion photography. A testament to their shared legacy, the book offers insights into one of postwar fashion’s most compelling collaborations, set against the backdrop of a transformative era in French design.
