There is the upper echelon of creatives who set the bar in terms of quality and technique so high that even 50 years down the track, their work is still is looked at for inspiration. One such master in his field is Richard Avedon, the fashion photographer whose work is being revived in this new free iPad app released by the Richard Avedon Foundation. With an archive of over 1,000 iconic images, the app honors Avedon’s legacy, bringing it into the digital age.

While we were shopping swimwear for out clients, we got inspired by this Avedon editorial with Lauren Hutton for Vogue Italia from the ’70s. Get the look with our picks (mostly sale!).
