Summary: Technically perfect, artistically exciting
Review: I bought this book because of the cover, and fortunately the content does not disappoint as well.The images within this book are all technically perfect, so it also serves as a great learning tool for myself as a fashion/editorial photographer. It gives me inspiration and definitely shows me what CAN be done with the camera. The photographers featured in this book are mostly quite well-known with only a few exceptions and some of their ideas can make you wonder 'how on earth did he/she think of THAT?'. I recommend this book. A delightful tea time reading.

Summary: Good research material
Review: I just received ths book in the mail. I have numbers 5 and 6 and they are the best so far. This one is still stunning though. It is very hard to find good research books on contemporary fashion photography and Lisa Lovatt does an incredible job writing about the different styles and critiques of this medium. I highly recommend this title (especially nos. 5 and 6) for anyone interested in researching fashion photography. This book goes way beyond just eye candy and cheap fashion thrills. The images are incredible. I also recommend any books by Rankin (the founder of Dazed and Confused), Terry Richardson, LaChapelle; i-D, Surface, Picture and Vellum magazines.

Summary: interesting but not innovative
Review: This book is very appealing to the eye with all the colors different models but the fact of the matter is...it's boring. I bought this book and I do like it but i had antisipated more fashion images. I seemed to get a book full of glossy so-so pictures. The pictures where more avant-garde than of that of fashion photography. If your interested in a fashion photography book, you should look into the impossible image or anything by Nick Night. Hotel lachapelle by David Lachapelle is an excellent fashion book as well. I would recommend those books over this one.

Summary: interesting but not innovative
Review: well, it's their forth. good enough for people who don't read magazines at all, it gethers a lot of so-call contemporary fashion photos in a book for a good coffee-table vaule, but i think it's only "so-call contemporary", for something more contemporary, try "dazed/confused"
