Information: Top nineties fashion photographer Thierry created some of the nineties’ hottest fashion looks, shooting with the experimentation and innovation that made him a star of the European Condé Nast and Fairchild fashion bibles (Vogue, Mare Claire, Elle, Harper’s Bazaar), in addition to breakthrough work in the US editions and genre-bending shoots for the UK frontrunners (i.-D., The Face) and downtown chroniclers Detour and Flaunt. These pictorials defined a decade, one enjoying the bright lights of a nostalgic millennial flashback, and put the likes of Kate Moss, Naomi Campbell, Linda Evangelista, Stephanie Seymour, Carla Bruni, Amber Valletta, Eva Herzigova, Kristen McMenamy, Yasmeen Ghauri, Helena Christensen, Tatjana Patitz, and Karen Mudler on the map.

Le Gouès was also one of the first fashion photographers to feature exclusively models of African heritage and ethnicity; the success of his first book Soul (powerHouse Books, 1997) featuring Black models, posed strikingly, nude, with skin paint treatment, led to a multi-year international campaign for Nike and featured top American athletes. His later projects on Cuban street fashion and sports culture (Popular, and Havana Boxing Club, both powerHouse Books) also influenced later campaigns and editorials. His work for brands such as Alexander McQueen, Armani, Bottega, Cartier, Fendi, Gucci, Hermés, Moschino, Paco Rabanne, Pierre Cardin, and Ralph Lauren are renowned.
