From the 1920s of burlesque garters to the 1940s of ladies in Schiaparelli-style suits and hats. From the 1950s of boys with rolled-up jeans and girls in fitted t-shirts to the 1970s that referenced the 1930s as Helmut Newton did in his shots. Titled Vintage Girls, the coffee-table book by photographer Nick Clemens, published in collaboration with Roy Roger’s and presented in the Men’s File Archive series, is a collection of tableu vivant (94 black and white images and 32 four-color images) that focuses on women and the evolution of their roles, told through fashion and changing manners and behaviors decade after decade. Set against a vintage house reminiscent of ranches and Southern US villas, evoking Gone with the Wind and The Long, Hot Summer, the models/actors wear Roy Roger’s garments that perfectly replicate the 1970s styles that celebrated femininity in all its canons. The packaging is also vintage: a box containing the historical Roy Roger’s pocket with a zipper, to be used as a document holder. Available in a limited edition of 1,000 copies, Vintage Girls is sold for 30 euros at Roy Roger’s stores, the best research stores worldwide, and on www.sevenbell.com
