Bonkers! — Bettina Rheims, 2014, first edition, Steidl 2014

A feverish portrait of London’s performative femininity. Moving from Paris and Shanghai to the British capital, Bettina Rheims captures models and actresses between catwalks, concerts and parties, staging scenes of theatrical self-display. Costumes and accessories by Vivienne Westwood heighten a charged atmosphere where fashion, eroticism and role-play collide. Published by Steidl in 2014, this tightly edited sequence constructs a dim, surreal space of female self-expression, continuing Rheims’ exploration of identity and desire.
