Lee Miller
Lee Miller is one of the most extraordinary women in fashion and art in the past 100 years. Her work as a surrealist artist, model and war photojournalist has been inspiring fashion since she arrived on the scene in the late 20's. References of her work and what she stood for as a woman among men have been a constant inspiration to Phoebe Philo since she took the helm at Celine, and this season was no exception. Check out these fantastic books on Lee Miller and the links to more info about this incredible woman.
FYI: First book on the list, The Lives of Lee Miller, is particularly special because it was written and compiled by Lee Miller's son.
