Los reportajes de moda que realizó Joana Biarnés, la primera fotoperiodista española, que muestran la evolución de la moda y de la sociedad en una época de cambios trascendentales, desde el final de la década de 1950 hasta principios de la de 1970. Pionera en la fotografía de moda, contó con la colaboración destacada de la periodista Rosana Ferrero. Joana se ocupaba del estilismo, de elegir a las modelos y las temáticas de muchos de sus reportajes y editoriales, y consiguió a menudo marcar tendencia. De esta forma, se convirtió en la cronista regular y sistemática de la evolución radical que se produjo en la indumentaria, del clasicismo de la alta costura a la informalidad del prêt-à-porter. Biarnés trató la moda con la misma proximidad y sinceridad con que abordaba el resto de los temas que documentaba. En un ámbito dado a la fantasía y la sofisticación, Joana situó a menudo las modelos en la calle, con naturalidad, sin buscar escenarios fastuosos o extravagantes y captó como nadie en cada imagen la esencia de su tiempo.
