ELECTRIC EIGHTIES

Terry Richardson and Emmanuelle Alt go back to the money fevered eighties while the world around us crumbles under the weight of bankrupt banks, not quite suiting the moment, but revealing a certain contemporary urgency nonetheless.
I love how Terry Richardson has the freedom of mind and intensity to take the champagne and greed era and simply explore it.
Extremely stylised and nostalgic images that pay homage to red hot power dressing!

Clin d'oeil to my sister - Is this how you ride it? Hehe
