Does This Image Look familiar?...

softgrey · 20-04-2005

didn't craig mcdean (or somebody)..do some pictures of kate moss that looked remarkably like this image...??...except the red cross was painted and dripping...

anyone else remember that?..i am pretty sure it was in W mag...

this is a vogue cover from march 1945 by erwin blumenfeld..

helena · 20-04-2005

yes I think you are correct softgrey - I have a copy of that magazine at home.......

softgrey · 20-04-2005

i'd love it if someone could find that image and post it to compare...

i remembered it so well because i loved it...and i loved this one too...which is OBVIOUSLY the inspiration...

isn't it interesting when you find that stuff...??
i come across things like that pretty regularly...and i'm like...
"so THAT'S where they got the idea from"...

Estella* · 20-04-2005

yes, i remember the image!
this happens to me all the time and it's so thrilling..i was about to start a dejà vu thread a thousand times but then i always get stopped by not finding the images on the net/being too lazy to scan.

(helena and softgrey, now you both look very beautiful!)

Hey! I finally found it, that is, the picture that you were talking about. There is a huge similarity

urchin · 28-04-2005

*bump* I'm proud of myself for finding the image of Kate

softgrey · 28-04-2005

omg urchin...~!...

The edit is shot by, as you guessed, Craig McDean for May 2001's W called "Role Model."
Here are some other scans I managed to find of the edit, scanned by Blackshine! Now, I could not find the big scan of the actual image in question but I am about 90% sure that it came from this editorial. About four images are missing from these scans so I can't be sure but in smaller versions of these scans I have on my computer, the White Cross image is grouped with them (same file name types). I'm sorry if that was completely incoherent because I'm not very good at explaining things
