DESCRIPTION:Sep 30\, 2026 - Jan 17\, 2027\n“My father didn’t label hims
 elf as a fashion photographer\,” muses Tom Penn\, executive director of 
 the Irving Penn Foundation. Among the thousands of prints making up the el
 der Penn’s oeuvre\, still lifes\, city shop fronts\, and nudes are as ev
 er present as svelte models and era-defining styles. And yet\, while Irvin
 g Penn may not have identified as a fashion photographer\, fashion is elem
 ental to his legacy\, a fact the Maison Européenne de la Photographie und
 erscores in its 30th-anniversary exhibition “Penn & Fashion.” The time
 ly tribute unfurls chronologically beginning in 1947—the year Christian 
 Dior launched a postwar fashion revolution with the wasp waists and coroll
 a skirts of his New Look. This aesthetic turn toward the graphic and the s
 culptural were suited to the young photographer\, who had studied drawing 
 and design before purchasing his first camera and moving into a lifelong c
 ollaboration with Vogue and couturiers such as Dior\, Cristóbal Balenciag
 a\, Yves Saint Laurent\, and Issey Miyake. Penn’s concern for precise co
 mposition\, lighting\, and line is the basis of the style he purified thro
 ugh more than six decades of fashion photography. Some 150 prints spanning
  fashion\, portraits\, and travel photography—along with facsimiles of t
 he unforgettable Vogue spreads in which many appeared—place Penn’s wor
 k in both a publishing and a global context.
