IDEA
Designed by Ezra Petronio and published by IDEA, the book, now in its second edition, features the era-defining images from the ’90s campaigns he collaborated on with Miuccia Prada.
The 116-page hardback includes an exclusive interview by Lou Stoppard on Luchford’s influence on the fashion world.
When asked why he decided to publish the images as a book, Luchford said: “One of the reasons is that almost every day someone has tagged me in one of these pictures on Instagram. I realised that they were being circulated the whole time. Why? I’m honestly not sure. There’s something about them that people want to go back, revisit and keep looking at — through the lighting there’s a seductive quality, an atmosphere there. It was a winning combination where all the elements came together: right clothes, right model, right concept.”
