Escape into the long-lost romance of air travel in
Come Fly with Me: Flying in Style
. This book is filled with candid shots of rich and famous jet-setters, all carefully curated by the renowned photo editor Jodi Peckman, who has a long-held fascination with shots of celebs at airports. Spanning several generations of travel and fame, this whirlwind collection starts with the glamour of the late 50s and early 60s and moves through the iconic fashions of the late 60s, 70s and 80s all the way to the styles of today. Inside, you’ll find shots of Dean Martin and Frank Sinatra dressed to the nines; Paris Hilton and Kim Kardashian decked out in vibrant pink athleisure wear; Steven Tyler and Joan Rivers trekking through LAX while cradling their Yorkies; the Olsen twins and Rhianna’s incognito attempts to avoid the paparazzi; Dolly Parton and Sammy Davis Jr. high-kicking through the halls of London Heathrow; Miley Cyrus standing out in a whimsical onesie; Paul McCartney and family leaving LGW in effortless, unpretentious style; Marilyn Monroe descending airstairs wrapped in furs; Pope Francis climbing a different set of steps in his papal robes; and so much more. Some are attempting to avoid attention while others are treating the airport like their own personal runway — but whether in suits, sweats or something in between, the icons featured in these pages all exhibit some combination of sophistication and chaos. Together, these snapshots create a playful retrospective of fifty year’s worth of celebrity, fashion and travel that is sure to delight wanderers and style-lovers alike.
