Join Susanna Brown for a journey back in time to the elegant world of photographer George Hoyningen-Huene
(1900–1968).
A pioneer in the fields of portraiture and fashion photography, Hoyningen-Huene worked during the golden age of Vogue and Vanity Fair, and his images define the glamorous aesthetic of that era. He collaborated with the stars of the artistic milieu in Paris, including Man Ray and Salvador Dalí, before embarking on a new career as a colour consultant for Hollywood movies.

During lockdown, Ian Griffiths happened to watch a BBC documentary on Lee Miller, the multitalented American model turned photojournalist who became a war correspondent for
Vogue in the ’40s. “She has belonged to my pantheon of heroines since my days as a student at London’s Royal College of Arts,” said Griffiths during a showroom appointment. “Her life as a strong-willed, driven, independent woman resonates deeply with the values we embrace at Max Mara.”
Miller’s life was rather well documented, so the designer poured over thousands of her photographs; taken mostly in black-and-white or in shades of gray, they inspired the pre-fall collection’s chic color palette. Miller modeled in the ’20s for the likes of Edward Steichen and George Hoyningen-Huene, swathed in couture.
