For decades, Annie Leibovitz has created entire worlds in a single frame. Vogue celebrates the publication of her new book, Wonderland (out next week from Phaidon), by looking back at some of her most iconic images.
BRIDGE BETWEEN WORLDS
In 1999, Vogue sent Annie to Paris to cover the couture collections for the first time—and surprised her by casting Sean Combs alongside Kate Moss. “The shoot was a cross-cultural straddling of two worlds: rap culture and high fashion,” the photographer writes in Wonderland. “And of course they weren’t all that different.”
HORN OF PLENTY
Annie’s second big couture shoot for Vogue in 2001, featuring Ben Stiller, was a tribute to the giants of fashion photography infused with her own whimsy, style, and personality.
PILLOW PARTY
In 2005, Annie photographed Sarah Jessica Parker in the Plaza Hotel, just before much of its contents were liquidated and many of its interior spaces were converted into luxury apartments.
A HOMECOMING
“I had photographed Penélope Cruz several times before, but the shoot in Spain was different,” writes Annie of this shoot from 2007. “Penélope ... was proud to be at home.” Cruz appears here with bullfighter Cayetano Rivera Ordóñez.
ALL ON THE TABLE
Inspired by the Metropolitan Opera’s 2009 production of Hansel and Gretel, by Engelbert Humperdinck, Annie and Grace cast Andrew Garfield and Lily Cole in their own production, with Lady Gaga as the witch.
FLOWER CHILDREN
