Harper's Bazaar

April 1965: Jean Shrimpton, photographed by Richard Avedon Avedon guest-edited this issue to mark twenty years at the magazine, and the cover shows how far a fashion front could stray from a polite portrait. Shrimpton peers out from a pink space helmet while the masthead vibrates in acid green, a Pop Art jolt designed by art directors Ruth Ansel and Bea Feitler. It is the cover to study for the moment fashion magazines started borrowing from contemporary art and the space race rather than the salon.
