A Look Back: Avedon and The Shrimp

"A Look Back" is a daily column that highlights a moment from fashion's fabulous past. Today's pick is a photo of famed photographer Richard Avedon laying on the ground, taking a camera from an assistant, while shooting model Jean Shrimpton in 1965. Shrimpton, whose nickname was "The Shrimp," worked with Avedon many times, most famously on a Vogue 1967 shoot titled "The Shrimp at Sea."
