Rankin teamed up with Hunger’s previous Beauty Editor-At-Large, for the latest instalment in Rankin’s beauty book series, Andrew Gallimore by Rankin. As the UK’s first ambassador for Dior, Andrew has never been one to shy away from experimentation. Since founding Dazed & Confused in 1991; Rankin has captured almost every walk of life with his lens. With a creative partnership spanning several years, the pair’s most recent project documents their most arresting work (up to 2014) as well as featuring new material shot exclusively for this publication.
Featuring a range of striking portraiture, Andrew Gallimore by Rankin, takes inspiration from a wide range of subcultures and genres. Actress Vicky McClure is transformed into Steve Strange ‘Visage’ era, whilst elsewhere Jessie J is given the golden touch. Charting the history of British beauty icons through make-up, model Ellen Burton is given six very different looks; from Adam Ant to Annie Lennox via Twiggy & Siouxsie Sioux. Elsewhere in the book, the pair examine the concept of death masks, creating a series of celebratory images adorned with flowers, chains and metal studs. Andrew Gallimore by Rankin, explores a conceptual Men’s make-up story, inspired by how light reacts to different surfaces, proving make-up needn’t always be feminine.
