Slim Aarons: Women

This book is ICONIC but also a fantastic read. I even bring it to the beach sometimes. Very demure.

I confess that I was rationally aware that I was well outside the target audience when I purchased this kindlebook Slim Aarons Women by Laura Hawk (author) Slim Aarons (photographer) via Amazon by the August 24, 2018 timeframe. Still, I am glad to have followed my intuition to obtain The kindlebook Slim Aarons Women which has the following images and details in this bright/vibrant kindlebook: a picture of two women who were a significant part of Slim Aarons life his wife Rita Dewart Aarons pictured in Monaco in 1956 and a 1960 Bedford New York picture of Mary Aarons, a picture of society decorator Lady Anne Orr Lewis, a picture of Austrian princess and socialite Manni Wittgenstein, a picture of Avon heiress baroness Terry Von Pantz, a picture of Roman photographer Elisabetta Catalano, a 1961 picture of Tania Mallet in the Bahamas an English model who played a role of Tilly Masterson in the James Bond film Goldfinger who is also listed to have a flourishing model career at 74 years of age at the time of the writings, pic of Christina Onassis daughter of the Greek shipping tycoon Aristotle Onassis Palm Beach 1968, a 1959 poolside photo of socialite Alice Tipping in Palm Beach, a 1961 picture of Inge Morath who is listed to be an Austrian born photographer who started her career in Paris in 1953, some of Morath’s notable work was of Marilyn Monroe whom she photographed on the set of the Misfits in 1960, Inge Morath’s daughter is Rebecca Miller a screenwriter and director, a picture of Lake Como Italy in 1983, a 1985 picture of Britta Mese in Portofino Italy a chance encounter with her on a stroll before dinner landed Slim Aarons a Town & Country Cover, One of Slim Aarons popular beloved photographs titled Kings of Hollywood which shows Clark Gable Van Heflin Gary Cooper and James Stewart at a New Year’s party at a place called the Romanoffs in Beverly Hills California in 1957, Slim Aarons Eva Garbor and Philip Shell at a formal event in the 1950s, a picture of Slim Aarons leaving a plane in 1955 and another picture of actress Joan Fontaine while in Rome filming her movie September Affair in 1949 and more.

Slim Aarons is part of American history and has recorded beauty at a time just after all the ugliness of war when people needed something to aspire to.

This is a large hardcover book that came still in the plastic. It’s a really cool book at a great price.

Love all the vintage photos and classic styles

A fine book to sit down and read while having a nice glass of wine. Radiant photos of lovely ladies in lovely places, doing lovely things.

When you want to feel that there's fun and beauty in the world, peruse these pages.

This is an amazing book, the pictures are beautiful. But I ordered three seperate times and had to return every time because the book corners were noticeably bent. I ended up keeping the last one although it still is a little bent. Would recommend Amazon to send this in bubble wrap next time
