Derek Ridgers, Londoner Fotograf. Seine Modelle präsentieren sich abwechselnd als sexy, dramatisch, unverfroren, entschlossen, provokant und zeitweilig einfach bizarr. Es sind die Superstars einer dreisten sieh-mich-an Generation - aus Gegenden, wo die bösen Mädchen die guten sind und Schönheit viele verschiedene Gesichter hat. Dieses Buch ist eine atemberaubende fotografische Glanzleistung. - Joe Grandert
