Overview

Christina Aguilera, Rachel Hunter, Jodie Kidd, Victoria Beckham, Kate Moss, Macy Gray, Geri Halliwell and Serena Williams to name but a few, discard their designer outfits and strike a pose for the camera. All the pictures are taken by women too, in fact some of the world's best female photographers including Mary McCartney, Sam Taylor–Wood and Ellen von Unwerth. And yes, occasionally you can believe what you read in the tabloids—Sarah Ferguson does indeed appear within these pages, but it’s all in the best possible taste and for a very good cause.

10% of the proceeds from the sales of this book will go to the Elton John AIDS Foundation.

The summer’s most buzzed–about picture book.

Library Journal

This coffee-table book contains 60 color and black-and-white photographs of 44 female celebrities posing nude except for a single piece of Cartier jewelry and a pair of four-inch Jimmy Choo heels. Tamara Mellon, Jimmy Choo founder and president, thought up the concept after reading an article in the New York Times about the plight of women in Africa affected by HIV/AIDS. Included in this large volume are tasteful and creative images taken by some of the world's leading female photographers, among them Mary McCartney, Sam Taylor-Wood, and Ellen von Unwerth. The array of actresses, models, singers, and sports personalities featured range from Sarah Ferguson and Emmanuelle Signer to Christine Aguilera, Serena Williams, and the Hilton sisters. Sir Elton John has written the foreword for the book, which also includes photographer credits and biographies and location and shooting details. Recommended for large public and specialty libraries. [Proceeds from the book and the limited-edition prints auctioned by Christies in London, New York, Los Angeles, and Hong Kong will go to the Elton John AIDS Foundation.-Ed.]-Karen MacMurray, Cape Coral P.L., FL Copyright 2005 Reed Business Information.
