Horst P Horst and Norman Jean Roy

In 1939, Horst P. Horst photographed models Bettina Bolegard, Helen Bennett and Muriel Maxwell for Vogue‘s November 1st Vanity Issue. Horst would often infuse his imagery with elements of surrealism, playing with perspectives and proportions, as seen in his 1939 birds-eye-view-style cover. In photographing a trio of Twilight stars, photographer Norman Jean Roy paid homage to the Horst cover with his own version featuring Dakota Fanning, Ashley Greene and Bryce Dallas Howard for Vanity Fair UK’s July 2010 issue.
