***William Klein worked for Vogue from 1955 to 1965. Less interested in fashion than his powerful documentary work, he used the experience to introduce the use of wide-angle and long-focus lenses, and long exposures combined with flash and multiple exposures. These innovative techniques contributed a significant new style to fashion photography. .
