Style of Movement: Fashion and Dance

Description

From renowned photographers Ken Browar and Deborah Ory, the husband-and-wife team behind NYC Dance Project and the best-selling photography book The Art of Movement, comes their follow-up book for fans of dance, fashion, and photography. Spotlighting today's greatest dancers - from ballet to modern - in clothing by today's and yesterday's most celebrated designers, this stunning volume takes the relationship between style, fashion, and dance as its subject. The dancers bring the pages to life with their grace and movement, becoming one with what they're wearing. Whether in couture gowns from Dior, Valentino, Oscar de la Renta, vintage Halston, Moschino, and Bill Blass, or in costumes designed by Martha Graham herself, the world-renowned dancers featured in these pages - including Tiler Peck, Daniil Simkin, Misty Copeland, Christine Shevchenko, Xander Parish, and Olga Smirnova - bring movement to style.

Ken Browar is a renowned fashion and beauty photographer. His passion for dance began when he lived in Paris and photographed dancers from the Paris Opera Ballet. Deborah Ory began her photography career while injured as a dancer, photographing rehearsals. She has worked as a photo editor at House & Garden and Mirabella, and has also done her own work as a photographer. Together, Browar and Ory are the creative team behind NYC Dance Project. Their work has been featured in magazines worldwide including Harper's Bazaar, Dior Magazine, L'Uomo Vogue, and many others. Their photographs have been exhibited at many galleries.

"Bringing together fashion and dance, The Style of Movement is the latest book by Ken Browar and Deborah Ory of NYC Dance Project. The husband-and-wife team has photographed some of today's top modern and ballet dancers in the United States, pairing them with incredible costumes that are brought to life through their movement. The ebb and flow of each piece of clothing is on full display with every flick of the wrist or jete, and the duo expertly captures it all through their lens." -MY MODERN MET
