Richard Avedon, Dovima
Rankin, Erin O'Connor
In January 2009, there was a fabulous documentary on UK televisions BBC4, 'seven photographs that changed fashion' following the photographer Rankin as he recreated seven iconic fashion photographs. Although nothing is better than the originals I think he did a pretty good job, I was especially impressed by his casting, choosing Erin O' Connor for the Avedon/Dovima shot was a stroke of genius. What do you think?
