1. THE WORKS OF JOHN FRENCH
Mary Kate O’Connell

2. PHOTO #1
This picture shows model Helen Bunney posing with
her left hand caressing her cheek. She is wearing a
fashionable dress, gloves and a belt. In the
1950s, when this shot was taken, this type of style
was new and very on demand.

3. PHOTO #2
This picture is very beautiful. It shows a model wearing a chic style.
She has a fluffy, feathery piece attached to her hat that demonstrates
how the styles were in the 20th century. The way that she gazes into the
camera makes you want to be her; it makes you want to buy her hat.

4. PHOTO #3
This picture demonstrates the model Barbara Goalenat posing for a picture. The picture is very
dramatic. The way she holds out the skirt of her dress is somewhat scandalous and makes the
picture kind of fascinating. Her dress is beautiful, and the way that she carries herself in the
picture is quite intriguing as well.

5. PHOTO #4
The model in this picture is named Twiggy. Twiggy was a very famous model in the 20th
century. Her facial expressions add a dramatic feel to the picture. Her outfit is very nicely put
together, and her pose is very attention calling.

6. PHOTO #5
This picture is great. The model, Jennifer Howland, looks very happy
and pleased to be in that warm tropical environment. Her smile adds a
lot of nice character to the picture. She looks dressed to have a
fabulous time.

7. PHOTO #6
This photo is super nice. I love how the model’s face is kind of smirking and giving a teasing
kind of a smile to the viewer, as if she is trying to make them jealous.

8. PHOTO #7
This picture is the definition of beauty. The Eifel Tower in the background
really sets a kind of romantic, fun, flirty mood to the picture. The model’s
pose emphasizes how elegant and graceful she looks in her dress designed by
Pierre Balmain.

9. PHOTO #8
This picture is quite mysterious. The model is implying that she
doesn’t want attention. She knows she looks good, but she doesn’t
want people to notice.

10. PHOTO #9
This picture is awesome. The women’s outfits are very nice and
sophisticated, and their body posture really stand out in this
picture.

11. PHOTO #10
This picture is so sophisticated. The model appears as if she simply thinks
that she is too good for those around her. She is trying to act distanced and
brilliant.

12. ONE OF A KIND
This picture is so mysterious. I love how she is not looking at the
camera. Her body is arched in a very unique way. Her neck is
craned in an odd manner that makes her look like she is caught
off guard, being very secretive, or trying to hide from someone.
The background of the picture looks very calm and peaceful. It
looks as if no one else has any clue that the model could be
hiding from someone or that she is up to something very fishy
indeed. Her outfit is also quite cool as well. Her coat is very cool.
The black on her pants, jacket and hat look very creepy.
Honestly, she looks like she is searching for serious trouble and
that she is doing suspicious, fishy business. The only thing I do
not like about this picture is that it is a tiny bit blurry in the
background. If the picture was in better focus, the picture would
be perfect. I feel like this picture was taken in the perfect
moment. The picture has very nice shadows and dark and light
images. The timing of the picture was truly very fabulous
indeed, the model is dressed for success and very eerie. The still
background of this picture definitely makes this photo perfect.
Without such a calm setting, the picture would not be as good.
