Published May 1, 1945 For the May 1, 1945, cover of Vogue magazine, photographer Erwin Blumenfeld simplified the details of a models face. The vintage fashion cover depicts only the models features, shadowed beneath a visors teal shade, and her magenta pink lips. Blumenfeld uses the same reductive technique in his famous January 1, 1950 cover of Vogue, showing model Jean Patchetts eye and lips.
