“Fashion photography has gotten a little lost. There is a lot of carnival going on. The hair has gotten too crazy and the make-up. At the moment, everybody is trying to do young. They have to look young or dress young. Youth is so overdone. All the advertising and magazine covers today — they don’t look like natural women. For me, that’s a real pity. There’s all this retouching. A little humanity would do good, especially in fashion photography.” - Peter Lindbergh
Peter Lindbergh hasn't shot for
Vogue for eighteen years. He went from working with
Vogue to
Harper's Bazaar in 1992, lured by
Liz Tilberis to work on the revamp of
Bazaar. Mr Lindbergh plans to begin work again with
Vogue, as well as other Conde Nast publications in the US, after a recent meeting with
Anna Wintour and
Grace Coddington. “They asked. It was like you are the black sheep in the family, and your older brother asks you to come home,” he said.
