From Capri, to Acapulco and Saint-Tropez, Slim Aarons spent decades photographing the jet set around the world. With summer on the horizon, we're opening up the archives, looking at some of the best pool parties the 1960s and 1970s had to offer.
He began his career as a combat photographer in the second world war, and it was an experience that defined the rest of Slim Aarons’ life. ‘Beaches were made for lying on, not invading,’ he concluded.
