Born 1923 in Stuttgart, German photographer Walde Huth worked as an industrial photographer at the engineering works in Esslingen in 1945. She then worked on commissions for textile companies and leading German fashion magazines, and was one of the first to use color photography for these subjects. She was commissioned by the Frankfurter Illustrierte to take photographs in Paris (1954-56) and by Freundin and Elegante Welt to photograph in Florence (1956).

Huth set up a studio-house with her husband in Marienburg, Cologne, but suffered a long interruption in her work caused by the demands of her family. She returned to the public eye in the late 1970s with a completely new pictorial style, producing long cycles of high-quality photographs with a strong conceptual basis, such as One Hundred Unwritten Letters.
Huth died in 2011 at the age of 88. These stunning photos are part of her work that Walde Huth took fashion portraits of classic beauties in the 1950s.
