OBSESSION DU JOUR: GILLES BENSIMON’S PHOTO DIARY
A photo of models in ballet flats by Gilles Bensimon
One of my favorite magazines (or should I say a personal obsession) is French Elle. Week after week the magazine’s vision is fresh and modern and oh so French! For years the man who made Elle look so amazing and inspiring was Gilles Bensimon- the former Creative Director. I continue to find inspiration in Gilles’ work. One of my favorite things is to peak at his photo diary. As he travels the world of photo shoots and fashion shows, he documents it all with his personal camera and emails the pictures to his nearest and dearest. I love seeing the world through Gilles’ lens- the people, places and things that he finds interesting. Here’s a glimpse at some of my recent favorites. Enjoy!
