L'Elegance des Annees 50

Scarce, large hardcover devoted to the fashion work of photographer Henry Clarke in the 1950s. Nice for the identifications of the models, in addition to the gowns being worn. Fashions by Jacques Fath, Givenchy, Maggy Pouff, Balenciaga, Mauboussin, Dorville, Chanel, Madame Gres, Jacques Heim, Griffe, etc. Models include Suzy Parker, Bettina, Dorian Leigh, Ann Sainte-Marie, Dovima, Comtesse Consuelo Crespi, Gloria & Dolores Guinness, etc., etc. 157 pages. Dust jacket missing a piece along top edge- since photograph was taken it has been put in a plastic sleeve, and looks quite presentable.
