Juergen Teller-From American Apparel to Marc Jacobs


Ever wonder who first started shooting those scandalous, seductive 36"x 48" crotch shots that made American Apparel popular? Or how about who shoots those crazy and, sometimes, seemingly senseless Marc Jacobs ads (like the one featuring Victoria Beckham inside an oversized purse?) Why, none other than German-born photographer Juergen Teller! And New York Magazine has written an awesome article about him in their special "Fall Fashion '08" feature. Check it out here! (I, personally, think it's a must read. Teller's take on raw beauty is just such a far cry from the photoshopped glamour seen in most fashion advertisements today.)
