"In 1965, for a shoot with the boundary-breaking portrait photographer Richard Avedon, they dressed Jean Shrimpton in a NASA space suit, deftly illustrating how the raging space race of the time was shaping the cultural imagination. In a last-minute panic over the cover’s image not clicking, Feitler and Ansel snipped DayGlo tubes into the shape of an electric pink halo to frame Shrimpton’s enormous eyes and bee-stung lips; making one giant leap from a mere fashion photograph to a statement about the essence of the 60s, where reality and fantasy collided."  Riposte magazine
