NATURAL FASHION :: TRIBAL DECORATION FROM AFRICA by HANS SILVESTER

This weekend I came across this immediately inspiring book while perusing the shelves of Strand Bookstore as I waited to watch True Grit around the corner.

As soon as I opened the store copy I was wowed. It contains 160 Hans Silvester portraits capturing the body decorating creativity of the Surma and Mursi tribes in East Africa.

The book is published by Thames & Hudson and can be found online and, of course, at Strand Bookstore.
