'He was a bit of everything—fashion editor, stylist, photographer, illustrator, writer—and lived life as it should be: with savage wit and endless élan,' three close friends and collaborators remember the late Michael Roberts.
I first came across Michael waiting in line to get into London’s Embassy Club in 1978. I was a startled faun of 18 and he was the fashion editor ofI cowered in the shadows as he wafted past the queue in a flotilla of fabulous fashion freaks towards the coat check, exuding a strange international glamour, dressed in a blazer, a button-down collar, and a tightly knotted tie. Suddenly we were introduced and Michael looked me up and down.
When Michael started taking photographs I was his willing model. My posing technique—borrowed from Gloria Swanson—made him shriek as I looked daggers at the lens from under my brow. “Why don’t we try something different?” he said after a few moments. “Un. Deux. Trois. JUMP.”Pretty soon though, as my career took off, he became my personal photographer. I didn’t make a move without Michael. He shot the cover of my first book.
