Paris, 1990s: A last-minute fitting. Clouds of hairspray. A final swipe of lip liner. Backstage at fashion week, designers, hair stylists, makeup artists, and others swirled around supermodels preparing to step onto the couture runway. Amid the frenzy, photographer Kevin Merrill lingered in the shadows, capturing the commotion. Merrill witnessed moments of stillness, too: a model slipping away from the rush to lose herself in a book, or another patiently waiting while corset ribbons were pulled tight. This striking collection from Merrill’s personal archives documents the rhythm and harmony behind-the-scenes at the height of ’90s fashion. The 90 black-and-white photographs offer an extraordinary glimpse of the spectacle, glamour and craftmanship that defined this influential decade in fashion.
