Mario Testino is second to none. He puts embellished kitten ears on Kate Moss and Lara Stone, flashes them in all sorts of kaleidoscope colours and calls it a day. That was rather recent.

Of the yesteryear his lens was (and is) always an ally of the supernovas. Claudia Schiffer black and white, up close, no pose. Vivienne Westwood and Helena Christensen - group giggles and all candid. A twenty year friendship (and a book devotion) with the one we call the face. The many facades of Kate Moss have been at his workings, some of them her most intimate. And even his photographs have a place in the royals' hearts.

All shiny and new, MarioTestino.com now shares the most treasured - old and new - of this lensman's gold dust adventures. Books, collaborations, editorial, motion and more. Click, look and enjoy the wonderment that could only come from the Testino trove.
