From the Caribbean to Italy and Mexico to Monaco, the photographs featured in the extravagant Poolside with Slim Aarons whisk the reader away to an exclusive club where taste, style, luxury, and grandeur prevail.
Poolside with Slim Aarons offers images of jet-setters and the wealthy, of beautiful, glittering people living the glamorous life. Yet this collection of stunning photographs of the rich and well-connected doing attractive things in their favorite playgrounds has a twist: The main character is pools, and everything that goes with them.
Pools bring with them images of magnificent, suntanned bodies; well-oiled skin; bikini-clad women; yachts; summer cocktails; sumptuous buffets; spectacular locations; and most of all: fun.
Poolside is not so much a who's who of society, aristocracy, and celebrity--although C. Z. Guest, Lilly Pulitzer, Cheryl Tiegs, Peter Beard, and many who have appeared in Slim's previous books are here--as it is about leisure time and how the rich make use of it. This is a more intimate peek into very private lives, to which photographer Slim Aarons was given unprecedented access in the fifties, sixties, seventies, and eighties.
This coffee table book is perfect for sharing, displaying, and gifting.
Includes hundreds of gorgeous photos and an Introduction by William Norwich, fashion and interior design editor, Phaidon Press
