Untitled No 120 A, 1983

The photograph Untitled No 120 A is part of Cindy Sherman’s series Fashion. This series was commissioned by a New York fashion house for Interview magazine. The photographs exude an estranging, near-sinister air, certainly not in keeping with the usual conventions of fashion photography. With fashion advertising as medium, Sherman raises questions about clothing as ‘second skin’ and sign of identity.
