RANKIN - 7 photographs that changed fashion

In January 2009, BBC 4 broadcast Rankin's 1 hour documentary Seven Photographs that Changed Fashion, in which he created his own tributes to the iconic images by Cecil BeatonErwin BlumenfeldRichard AvedonHelmut NewtonHerb RittsDavid Bailey and Guy Bourdin. He interviewed an array of original photographers, models and assistants, and used contemporary models including Heidi KlumErin O'ConnorJade ParfittSophie Ellis-Bextor, his wife Tuuli Shipster, Mollie GondiDaphne Guinness and David Gandy.

My favourite part of the documentary was the remake of cecil beatons photograph. I think Rankin re-created that photo best.
