Helmut Newton "Rue Aubriot", Paris, 1975 – Vintage Exhibition Poster
"Rue Aubriot", Paris, 1975 – Vintage Exhibition Poster by Helmut Newton.
Photographed on a quiet Paris street in 1975, Rue Aubriot is one of Helmut Newton’s most iconic images, created for Yves Saint Laurent’s “Le Smoking” campaign. The model, dressed in a sharply tailored tuxedo, stands poised under the glow of a single streetlight — an embodiment of Parisian elegance, androgyny, and defiant sophistication. Newton transforms a simple fashion portrait into cinematic storytelling, merging couture with shadow and atmosphere.
The image became an enduring emblem of modern femininity — powerful, sensual, and self-assured. Rue Aubriot remains one of Newton’s most referenced works, perfectly capturing the intersection of art, fashion, and the quiet confidence that defined his vision of women.
