Brought up on the coast of Wales, Grace Coddington got her start in the fashion world after winning a Vogue modelling contest aged 17. Sitting for the likes of Norman Parkinson and David Bailey, she was a a key fixture on London’s swinging 60s scene, until a car accident left her injured, abruptly ending her modelling career.
Moving behind the camera to work as a fashion editor at British Vogue before joining Anna Wintour at American Vogue, her rich, detailed aesthetic and inventive approach to styling has created some of fashion’s most enduring images.
We take a look back at some of our favourite shoots styled by Grace over the past three decades, including collaborations with Helmut Newton, Peter Lindbergh and Annie Leibovitz.
