Hey -sorry I don't have much info to offer myself here but I would be grateful if anyone had anything on Eric. I know he is doing the upcoming Manolo Blahnik book but does anyone have any other info or scans of his work? Also I remember reading in Vogue that he was apparently one of the most beautiful people in the jet set back in the day. There were photos of him and Tom Ford and also Paloma Picasso in their red and white retro outfits looking like the bright sparks of fashion -and I suppose they all fulfilled that promise. I'll try and look through back issues but I am not sure I'll find it. Thanks!

lovely thanks :heart:

i like the slightly off-center framing...
how it just slightly crops into the top of her head in one image and how in the other she occupies the left side of the image.. yet all of the space is used well.. the feather in her hat and her arm are both touching the edges of the opposite frame..

Blahnik by Boman: Shoes, Photographs, Conversation
Publisher: Chronicle Books (October 13, 2005)

From Amazon.com:

''Product Description

Long before their supporting role in Sex and the City, Manolo Blahnik's shoes were legendary—exquisitely detailed, unabashedly luxurious, and impossibly sexy. The epitome of sophistication and taste, they have graced the feet of royalty, supermodels, and movie stars. In these breathtaking pictures by Blahnik's longtime friend, photographer Eric Boman, the shoes take center stage in a dazzling array of intriguing and often lighthearted scenes and settings. A white leather stiletto plays an incriminating role in a suggested crime worthy of Hitchcock. A pale green mule nestles among ferns in homage to Blahnik's recurring botanical themes. The straps of a sandal echo the strands of spaghetti in which it lays entwined. Boman's unerring eye and oddly keen understanding of Blahnik's creations make for spellbinding pictures, full of wit, playfulness, and sole. Elegant allusions to Blahnik's eclectic influences abound—from the cinema to history, from the natural world to art and literature. As covetable as a pair of Manolos, this is a book of consummate creativity, addictive power, and unrivaled individuality: a cult object on a cult designer.

About the Author

Manolo Blahnik was born in the Canary Islands. He studied at the University of Geneva before moving to Paris and then London to work as a set designer. On a trip to New York in 1971, Blahnik was sent to show his sketches to legendary fashion editor Diana Vreeland, who famously suggested, "You should do shoes." He lives in England.

Eric Boman, originally from Sweden, has worked in London, Paris, and New York for, among others, Vogue , Marie-Claire , Yves Saint-Laurent, Vanity Fair , The World of Interiors , and House & Garden . Since 1988, he has increasingly explored art photography
and still-lifes. He lives in New York.''
