Crystal Renn

While not quite back-to-back (May & August), two appearances in Vogue Paris in the same year is quite an achievement for any model, let alone one reknown for pushing size boundaries.  Carine Roitfeld has gathered an unusual and impressive designer wardrobe for this moody, sensual series of 7 photos.

Notable American art photographer Tina Barney included Crystal Renn in her series of images for a menswear story entitled “Halston’s Haunts”, retracing American designer Halston‘s old Manhattan hangouts for Britain’s Arena Homme Magazine Plus in 2006.

Vogue US‘s April 2007 “Shape Issue” featured Crystal Renn and Hilary Rhoda in an editorial mixing high- and low-priced sports and day wear. Normally I would not display Hilary’s photos as she is listed as a US size 4 in the text of her images… HOWEVER… It appears in this editorial that Hilary was styled [...]

Rather surprisingly, Glamour magazine’s online version of the November issue contains an unabridged version of the nude shoot and article that has been previously described on this site. For those wondering, there is only one group nude shot published in the actual magazine with the interview, which appears below. There are other photographs, such as the [...]

HUNGRY FOR MORE?

Well here it is everyone: the cover image for Crystal Renn’s book Hungry, which is now available for pre-order via Amazon. Photographer: Ruven Afanador The title placement and typeface is rather Vogue-like, and the photo is a redux of the Elle Italia shoot with Ruven Afanador. It’s a strange melange, given the competition between the [...]
