This authentic 1970 color photograph features a striking intersection of automotive design and high fashion at the New York Auto Show. The archival image showcases a red Jaguar E-Type (XKE) Series 2 Fixed Head Coupe serving as a literal pedestal for a fashion model. The model is draped across the roof and bonnet wearing a bold, swirling patterned gown from the collection of celebrated American designer Bill Blass, as noted by the “Clothes by Bill Blass” placard on the display. This exhibit at the New York Coliseum highlighted the E-Type’s status as a style icon, even as it entered its final years of production. In the background, signage for Rover, Renault, and the Renault 16 (priced at $2395) provides a factual record of the international competitors present. While the New York Coliseum was demolished in 2000 to make way for the Time Warner Center, this image preserves the glamorous marketing tactics used to blend European luxury with New York’s fashion elite. All our images are available as royalty-free instant downloads for use in books, media, and creative projects – or make your own prints for home, work, or as a truly unique gift.
