In the vibrant 1980s, fashion embraced a bold, transformative aesthetic, and found one of its greatest visual storytellers in the legendary British photographer, David Bailey. Having helped define the Swinging Sixties, Bailey returned to capture the spirit of a new generation, where vivid colours, elevated glamour, expressive make-up and unapologetic style shaped an unforgettable era.

Eighties brings together Bailey’s most iconic images published in Vogue Italia, Vogue Paris, Tatler, and many more. Featuring haute couture and prêt-à-porter collections by influential designers such as Azzedine Alaïa, Comme des Garçons, Guy Laroche, Missoni, Stephen Jones, Valentino and Yves Saint Laurent, this book is a visual tribute to a decade of boundless creativity.

Bailey’s photographs reflect the shimmer of jewels, the flowing silks and the power of the era’s iconic tailoring, brought to life by legendary models like Naomi Campbell, Cindy Crawford, Catherine Deneuve, Princess Diana, Jerry Hall, Grace Jones, Christy Turlington and many more. Each image channels the energy, confidence and singular style that defined the ‘80s, viewed through a lens of sophistication and attitude.

At a time when contemporary culture is once again drawn to the maximalism and daring of that era, Eighties offers a unique opportunity to rediscover its legacy through the eyes of one of photography’s great masters. As Bailey writes in the preface: “The eighties turned out to be magic.” This book is a visual journey into that magic.
