Fashion editors and publishers for the last 30 years must be under the gun to get articles/books to press as there seems to be a serious lack of fact finding. Sad. Credit for designers, editors, and photographers originality seems to be based on bias rather than fact. Oh well, the times in which we live.

I am quite sure Marilyn is by far more upset than anyone and has a hand in your “setting the record straight” editorial.
I am a public figure photographed by Bill over the years (we met at the Colony Club) in the 70’s) granted not as well known and have been left out of books editorials etc. not a great feeling.
I suggest you ask Vanessa directly…. and publish her reply. Otherwise you will continue to ask, second guess, and make stuff up.
We are all curious to know the reason why.
Best wishes and good luck!

I am in disbelief and outraged that Marilyn was basically overlooked in a book of Bill Cunningham’s work when in fact Bill couldn’t take his eye/camera off of her. Of course she was not his only muse but she was clearly one of his favorites and deserves that recognition.

As her publisher pointed out, Bill even devoted one entire layout in The New York Times to Marilyn’s storied fashion looks. She was Bill-ified from 1972 to Cunningham’s death in 2016. The list of Hall of Fame Muses cited in Vanessa Friedman’s article was diminished by her absence.
