- Summary
- The book "High Fashion", comprises extraordinary color photographs of costumes of the imperial city of Cusco with explanatory texts, taken by fashion photographer Mario Testino between 2007 and 2011, a time in which he began to develop his photographic work as result of his encounter with a collection of costumes of all provinces in the region. Testino depicts in his plates the colorful dresses and clothing accessories of the provinces of Cusco, Calca, Chumbivilcas, Paucartambo and Espinar, among others, this last place better known for its problems with mining and not for its great cultural contributions. These costumes are still worn by women and men from Cusco, and are either their traditional cloths or the ones used as dance dresses. The edition includes an introduction by Testino, a note from the editor of Vogue America, Hamish Bowles, as well as two articles: one in charge of Peruvian researchers Soledad Mujica and Fedora Martínez and another text by Jennifer Allen, the Berlin-based contemporary art critic.
