I Am Iman Book by Iman Mohamed Abdulmajid

Description: Iman Mohamed Abdulmajid, professionally known as Iman, is a Somali-American supermodel married to David Bowie. Her emergence in 1975 sparked an upheaval in cultural identity that continues today. "I Am Iman" is her first book, a gloriously entertaining hybrid essay on the cultural-cum-political power of good looks. The book features a quarter century of the most famous photographs by Helmut Newton, Steven Meisel, Herb Ritts, Peter Lindbergh, Bruce Weber, Scavullo, David Bailey, Nick Knight, and many others. These photographs are contextualized by well-known essayists, a chorus of celebrity contributions, and Iman's own take on her much-mythologized career. "I Am Iman" captures the funny, infuriating, and often absurd validation of black and ethnic looks in a beauty industry where billions of dollars--and the self-image of women everywhere--are on the line. With graphic design featuring gatefolds, diecuts, and other interactive elements, as well as specially commissioned, never-before-seen images by Annie Leibowitz, Ellen Von Unwerth, Sante D'Orazio, and Michel Comte, this book is an assemblage worthy of any fashionista's dream. The book is in vintage very good condition and will be carefully packaged and shipped worldwide by a reliable carrier providing a tracking number.
