"The Simpsons go to Paris with Linda Evangelista"

In August 2007, Harper's Bazaar did a fashion spread with the Simpsons characters, along with the fashion industry's most celebrated designers - animated.

The spread shows Lisa trading in her pearls for a necklace from Alber Elbaz (Lanvin fashion designer), Marge modelling gowns from Chanel and Versace, Maggie riding in Jean Paul Gaultier’s Birkin Bag, the Simpsons sitting in the front row of a Louis Vuitton fashion show while Marc Jacobs waves to his fans, and Selma and Patty in dresses from designers Viktor & Rolf.

This is one of the most creative fashion editorials I have EVER seen. Television, humor, popular culture, and fashion that have defined the latter half of the 20th century all seem to merge to make a statement. My source book will be a collection of fashion related images and articles of innovative and interesting designs from the 20th century. Together, I hope that they too will merge to tell the story of fashion in our time.
