copyright editions olo editions Iconic When celebrities embody fashion They have all marked their generations, they all have an iconic object that we naturally associate with their names and that we adore adopting. Audrey Hepburn’s little black dress, Bridget Bardot’s Vichy gingham skirt, the striped sailor shirt worn by Picasso. The ageless watches that Don Draper changed with each season of Mad Men, the satin dresses made sublime by Grace Kelly, the hat created by Vivienne Westwood and worn at the Grammy’s by Pharell Williams. Iconic offers an history of objects rooted in our collec- tive memory through portraits of iconic characters who did so much to magnify them.
