"I have to say I was never really a big fan of fashion in the
Eighties, but the photographs here in David Bailey's
book of that era have such a strong point of view that I am
beginning to come around! … Bailey jumped right into this
new vibe with his bold and often humorous portraits of the
personalities of the time, such as Grace Jones, David Bowie,
Jack Nicholson, and Tina Turner; affectionately tongue-in-
cheek photographs of Helmut
Newton, Karl Lagerfeld, and
Manolo Blahnik; and dramatic
high-fashion images of high-
voltage models such as Jerry
Hall, Marie Helvin, and [actor]
Anjelica Huston. In so many
ways, he owned the era ... Back
in London, Bailey's Primrose Hill
studio was ground zero for the
dynamic spirit of the times,
which Bailey not only embraced
but defined." — Grace Coddington

Spring styles reference splashes of 1980s
maximalism. On cue, Taschen has
rolled out the new book, "David Bailey. Eighties,"
excerpted here. Under the cover
are more than 200 snaps of that decadent
decade by the prolific London-born
fashion and portrait photographer.
