David Bailey, synonymous with groundbreaking fashion photography, has personally curated a collection from his archives. His distinctive eye and personal touch are palpable in his one-of-a-kind Polaroids, tracing the evolution of fashion throughout the decades.
Photography is at the core of Bailey's artistic practice, and his Polaroids are an intimate visual diary of his long career. This collection features images from fashion shoots from the 1970s onwards, both in the studio and on location, miniature portraits of iconic figures - including Naomi Campbell, Linda Evangelista, Bianca Jagger, and Marie Helvin, among others - and still-life compositions. Spontaneous and deeply personal, these photographs offer a glimpse into Bailey's creative process, capturing the essence of the people and subjects that have shaped his life and work.
Each Polaroid is a unique photograph, hand-signed by Bailey and accompanied by a certificate of authenticity, sealed in an envelope marked 'Copyright David Bailey'.
It is very much Bailey's wish that his Polaroids are accessible to all and reflect a sense of serendipity. Thus, every Polaroid from this collection is a mystery until opened from its sealed envelope, ensuring a fair, democratic process for every collector's acquisition.
