Global fashion
Gillian Turner-Niles is a fashion photographer. She lives in New York and works in the fashion capitals of the world. You can see her photographs on the pages of fashion magazines across the world. Her clients include Gucci, Dior, Ferragamo, even the sports clothing company Nike. But today she’s talking to me by phone from the middle of Sudan. So, what is she doing there?
‘I’m taking photographs, of course!’ She explains, ‘I’m not taking photographs for Vogue or anyone else. It’s like a holiday. In my business, it’s easy to forget there’s another world out there. And I like looking at clothes in a different way when I travel.’
But in this world of global fashion, people all over the world wear the same clothes. The businessman’s suit in Beijing is like the businessman’s suit in Berlin. And jeans and T-shirts are almost a type of uniform these days.
‘Yes, I think that’s true in the big international cities,’ Gillian says. ‘But I’m visiting regions in the world with their own traditional clothes and their own fashions. That’s especially true in this part of Africa.’
1. New York is the capital of world fashion
2. Gillian Turner-Niles just takes photos for her company.
