A collection of works by Irving Penn, one of the leading photographers of the 20th century, "Inventine Paris Clothes 1909-1939". Since the 1940s, alongside Richard Avedon, Irving Penn has been a driving force in the world of photography in the United States and around the world. Founded by the famous director Alexei Brodovitch, he was active in the world of "fashion" in the early days. It was the pen that demonstrated his talent in a wide range of fields. Especially excellent works of "Still Life" such as "Flower", "Food", "Cigarette" and "Tableware" are very popular among Japanese fans. This book is a book composed of images taken by Pen at the time of the exhibition held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, planned by Diana Vreeland, an editor who also became a movie. Penn captures pre-war haute couture dresses from Parisian brands such as Chanel. It is an exhibition that harmonizes everything from planning to pen selection, and is a book full of the charm of fashion that does not fade even beyond the times.
