Corinne Day, the renowned English photographer that helped propel Kate Moss to Supermodel status ( she shot Moss' first
Vogue cover in 1993) died this past weekend from brain cancer. She was 45 years old. She made a name for herself in the nineties by rejecting the glossy style of the eighties and embracing a cleaner more stylized editorial look. An example of that can be seen in the British mag
The Face, where a smiling 16-year old Kate Moss (who was also be a good friend of Day's) graces the cover. Her ability to flawlessly blend art and photography will be her lasting legacy.
