The Bubble series by Melvin Sokolsky




This iconic "Bubble" series was created by fashion photographer Melvin Sokolsky for the Harper's Bazaar 1963 Spring Collection. The series, inspired by The Garden of Earthly Delights and Surrealism, depicts model Simone D'Aillencourt in large bubbles floating through the Paris cityscape. I love the glamorous, vintage fashions. Also, these innovative images were created before Photoshop! The plexiglass bubbles were hung from a crane in various locations throughout Paris. Truly remarkable, don't you think?!
