Models Matter The book ‘Models Matter’ is basically the fashion industry’s most glamorous, old-school autograph book. Niquet began to reach out to the models he considered quintessentials figures in his industry, for their epic beauty and remote auras. Deploying a sleuth’s methods to locate these models around the globe, he collected 100 signatures, most of which are framed along with an iconic portrait. The book was coming together. Niquet whittled his collection in half, supermodels, like Linda Evangelista, Claudia Schiffer and Jean Shrimpton are all accounted for but also some lesser known in pop culture who are regarded as icons by industry insiders, including Naomi Sims and Donna Mitchell. Niquet deftly paired autographed portraits alongside personal anecdotes and essays by style and beauty bigwigs from designer Christian Lacroix to makeup artist Pat McGrath, each of whom offer poignant testaments to each subject. #chapeaulondon #chapeaublog #dedicatedtothethingswelove #wordsandpictures #amazing #london #lifestyle #modelsmatter #christopherniquet #zacposen #stevenmeisel #photography #autograph #models #book #damiani #peggymoffitt #naomicampbell #naomisims #donnamitchell #lindaevangelista #jeanshrimpton
