A groundbreaking, in-depth exploration of the movement and flexibility of the human body, featuring 1,000 stunning black-and-white photographs that showcase the unique collaboration between international supermodel Coco Rocha, "The Queen of Pose," and world-renowned photographer Steven Sebring. Supermodel Coco Rocha's uncanny ability to strike distinctive, camera-ready poses at an astounding speed has earned her international fame throughout the fashion industry-and made her the muse of celebrated photographer Steven Sebring. In Study of Pose, Sebring and Rocha have documented 1,000 unique poses-theatrical, vibrant, elegant, dramatic, and unlike anything the fashion or art worlds have seen before. Study of Pose features Rocha in a simple white leotard-bending, jumping, sitting, standing, and everything in between. The result is a gorgeous and arresting look at the potential of the human form. Packaged in a beautiful black case with two black satin bookmarks and a four-color bellyband with French folds, Study of Pose is sure to become an essential reference for Rocha's millions of fans around the world, as well as all models, artists, photographers, and lovers of art and fashion.
