Starting this month, a 25-strong collection of internationally renowned photographer Gilles Bensimon’s fashion portraits will be touring across the United States with luxury hotel group Sofitel.
The exhibition, Elles by Gilles Bensimon, features never-before-shown-in-America portraits of Audrey Hepburn, Catherine Deneuve, Charlize Theron, Cindy Crawford and Beyonce, amongst others and captures the grace, glamour and individuality of these modern-day icons. Whilst also highlighting the hard-to-put-your-finger-on insouciance of French chic. Which sits perfectly with the French brand.
“I like to take my pictures fast. Fly-on-the-wall! As if not working…” comments Gilles Bensimon, “Everything good in my life comes from women because I love them. I am a feminist!”
