Over the last four decades, the fashion modeling industry has become a lightning rod for debates about Western beauty ideals, the sexual objectification of women, and consumer desire. Yet, fashion models still captivate, embodying all that is cool, glam, hip, and desirable. They are a fixture in tabloids, magazines, fashion blogs, and television. Why exactly are models so appealing? And how do these women succeed in so soundly holding our attention?In This Year’s Model, Elizabeth Wissinger weaves together in-depth interviews and research at model castings, photo shoots, and runway shows to offer a glimpse into the life of the model throughout the 20th and 21st centuries. Once an ad hoc occupation, the “model life” now involves a great deal of physical and virtual management of the body, or what Wissinger terms “glamour labor.” Wissinger argues that glamour labor—the specialized modeling work of self-styling, crafting a ‘look,’ and building an image—has been amplified by the rise of digital media, as new technologies make tinkering with the body’s form and image easy. Models can now present self-fashioning, self-surveillance, and self-branding as essential behaviors for anyone who is truly in the know and ‘in fashion.’ Countless regular people make it their mission to achieve this ideal, not realizing that technology is key to creating the unattainable standard of beauty the model upholds—and as Wissinger argues, this has been the case for decades, before Photoshop even existed. Both a vividly illustrated historical survey and an incisive critique of fashion media, This Year’s Model demonstrates the lasting cultural influence of this unique form of embodied labor.

Premier ouvrage entièrement consacré au défilé de mode, Showtime retrace l'histoire du défilé de la fin du XIXe siècle à nos jours à travers analyses, récits et témoignages abondamment illustrés. Comment le défilé fait-il image ? Représentations littéraires, iconographie des " marcheuses professionnelles " devenues top models, ou évolution du métier de photographe, l'image de défilé révèle progressivement ses enjeux stratégiques et économiques. A travers les voix croisées de témoins et acteurs du monde de la mode, d'archéologues du domaine contemporain, d'historiens et de chercheurs, une chronologie se dessine, rythmée par une iconographie qui en marque les temps forts. Enfin, l'étude de sujets inhérents ou annexes au défilé, comme le mannequin, le cinéma, le son, le carton d'invitation et la photographie, complète ce panorama. Historiens et chercheurs disposent désormais du recul nécessaire pour faire du défilé un sujet à part entière. Showtime leur ouvre le chemin.

"The first-ever book celebrating black models, filled with revealing essays, interviews, and stunning photographs. To date, there has never been a book devoted exclusively to black models. Supreme Models fills that void, paying tribute to black models past and present: from the first to be featured in catalogs and on magazine covers, like Iman, Beverly Johnson, and Donyale Luna, to the supermodels who reigned in the nineties -- Tyra Banks and Naomi Campbell. The book also observes the newest generation of models -- Adwoa Aboah, Jourdan Dunn, and Joan Smalls -- who are shaking up the fashion industry by speaking out about racial prejudice and becoming social media sensations. Written by celebrity stylist and journalist Marcellas Reynolds, Supreme Models features more than 70 women from the last 60 years. The book is filled with gorgeous photographs of the women, and details their most memorable covers, campaigns, runway shows, and editorials. Black models have been influencing fashion and pop culture for decades, reshaping the standards and boundaries of beauty. Supreme Models is a celebration of their monumental impact."--

De toutes les femmes qui ont joué un rôle important dans la vie de Baudelaire, madame Sabatier - la Présidente - est sans doute celle sur laquelle on a le plus écrit. Pourtant, Une femme trop gaie enrichit et modifie le regard porté sur l’héroïne et son destin. L’auteur parvient en effet à éclairer les zones d’ombre entretenues par Edmond Richard, dernier amant et premier biographe de la Présidente, et à dissiper quelques légendes tenaces, grâce à des archives en grande partie inédites. En même temps qu’un tableau vivant de la vie artistique du XIXe siècle, cette biographie livre de nombreux épisodes inconnus de la vie de Mme Sabatier, en particulier sur ses jeunes années et sur la période qui succède à ses célèbres dîners - où se côtoyait le Tout-Paris artistique - jusqu’à sa mort en 1890, soit près d’un demi-siècle encore inexploré ponctué d’amitiés et d’amours. Mais surtout, l’analyse systématique de sa correspondance, de celles de ses amis et des œuvres littéraires auxquelles elle fut associée permet de présenter sa relation avec Baudelaire sous un angle tout à fait nouveau (notamment en ce qui concerne le «fiasco» dont le poète aurait été victime), de comprendre la place que Flaubert lui réserva dans L’Éducation sentimentale et de cerner la complicité qu’elle entretint avec Théophile Gautier, auteur de la célèbre Lettre à la Présidente, chef-d’œuvre de la littérature érotique. Près de vingt ans de recherches, menées avec la minutie d’une instruction criminelle, ont été nécessaires à Thierry Savatier pour écrire cet ouvrage. Au-delà des clichés de la déesse inaccessible ou de la courtisane apparaît alors une femme qui, par son rôle auprès de créateurs de premier plan et par sa totale indépendance de cœur et d’esprit, fut étonnamment moderne pour son temps. Arrière-petit-neveu de la Présidente, Thierry Savatier poursuit une carrière dans l’industrie (marketing, renseignement économique) et, parallèlement, des recherches sur la littérature et l’art du XIXe siècle.
