STEVEN MEISEL.

                                                    VOGUE ITALIA NOVEMBER 2006

Steven Meisel is considered as one of the most iconic fashion photographer of all times. He has photographed every single Vogue Italia's cover since 1988.
He is born in New York ( 1954 ) and the interest and passion for fashion and beauty start since he was young. He drew female figures and read fashion magazines like Harper's Bazaar and Vogue. The sources of inspiration for him are his mother and his sister, also women from high society. He met Twiggy, one of his favourite models, when he was 12 years old. He studied at the High School of art and design, he attended several courses but he finished to prefer fashion illustration.
One of the first job was to work for Halston. In these years he never thought to become a photographer. The curiosity came after. He became to photograph for Elite Agency. Since that moment, he started to take photos in the street and in his apartment. Today he is very known and famous to work for Vogue, a lot of campaigns ( Versace, Calvin Klein, Lanvin, Valentino...).
He never published a book dedicated to his works.



Steven Meisel è uno dei più famosi fotografi di moda. Dal 1988 ha fotografato ogni singola copertina di Vogue Italia. Nasce nel 1954 a New York; l'interesse e la passione per la moda è già presente nella gioventù: ai giochi preferisce disegnare figure femminili e leggere riviste di moda. Le fonti d'ispirazione sono sua madre e sua sorella, ma anche le donne aristocratiche, simboli d'eleganza. Era ossessionato da Twiggy, modella in voga negli anni '60, che conosce a soli 12 anni. Studia all' High School of art and design, frequenta diversi corsi ma man mano si orienta sempre più al fashion design. Uno dei primi lavori fu dalla famosa casa di moda Halston. Ai quei tempi ancora non pensava di diventare fotografo. La curiosità venne dopo, incominciando a fare provini fotografici presso l'azienda Elite. Da quel momento in poi, Meisel incomincia a scattare foto per strada e nel suo appartamento. Steven Meisel non si ferma più: diventa un grande talento di moda, ancora oggi richiestissimo per campagne pubblicitarie e per copertine di riviste di moda.
Il fotografo non ha mai pubblicato un libro personale con tutti i suoi lavori.
