Patrick McMullan’s latest book, one of the largest collections of his images ever published, focuses on sensational and stunning women—iconic Glamour Girls. GLAMOUR GIRLS (Pmc Publishing, distributed by Abrams, $75.00, hardcover, September) features over 1,000 color photographs spanning Patrick McMullan’s career. Gorgeous, confident women wearing dazzling clothing and jewelry leap from the pages of this spectacular, large-format book. Featured celebrities include: Angelina Jolie, Gwyneth Paltrow, Cate Blanchett, Christy Turlington, Jennifer Aniston, Chloe Sevigny, Jennifer Lopez, Nicole Kidman, Scarlett Johanssen, Penelope Cruz, Uma Thurman, Renee Zellweger, and many others. As Amy Fine Collins writes in the Introduction, “Every decade, every year, every season, it seems a new Glamour Girl emerges, rising like Venus from the foam, out of the movie studios of Hollywood, the designer ateliers of Seventh Avenue, the gilded co-ops of Park Avenue. And Patrick is there, shutter at the ready, registering their arrival.”
The lush, full-color photographs are accompanied by commentary from a range of notables such as Candace Bushnell, Dominick Dunne, Tom Ford, Aileen Mehle, Rex Reed, Jeff Slonim and Liz Smith.
Among guest at the Dilido hotel: Ocean Drive magazine's Glenn Albin and Eric Newill, author Brian Antoni, Neiman Marcus' Katharine Rubino, socialites Alison Zhuk with husband Mark Zhuk, Avenue magazine's Miami editor/furniture designer Daisy Olivera with husband Bernard, Karu&Y's Cesar Sotomayor, and Miami Herald's nightlife/celebrity columnist Lesley Abravanel.
