About the Author:

Vogue is one of the most popular fashion and lifestyle magazines in print. The magazine has been published and distributed by Condé Nast since 1905. Jonathan Van Meter is a Vogue contributor.

В этой книге представлены коллекции лучших фотографий из знаменитого журнала Vogue. Их тема – платье, символ женственности и красоты, воплощение стремительного хода истории и бесконечных капризов моды. Женщина в платье – источник вдохновения для знаменитых фотохудожников прежних лет и излюбленный образ нынешних мастеров фотографии.

Платье. Оно делает нас неотразимыми. Мужчин - растерянными и восхищенными. Жизнь - совершенной. Каждое платье - новая роль. И точка зрения. И жизненная позиция. Этот эфемерный предмет архитектуры - воплощение нашего понимания красоты и стиля, элегантности и счастья.

В этом великолепном издании Джо Эллисон собрала самые впечатляющие фотографии из Vogue, которые представляют платье во всем его разнообразии и блеске. Она показывает нам, что с течением десятилетий платье, меняясь, все же остается верным себе. Сравним, например, почтенного возраста снимок, сделанный Хорстом в 1938 году, - скульптурное платье из белого джерси, созданное Мадам Грэ, и броскую фотографию Терри Ричардсона, появившуюся в журнале спустя 70 лет, с моделью Карли Клосс в драпированном платье - творении Донны Каран (с. 13 и 31). Или взгляните на классическую фотографию Нормана Паркинсона 1950 года, на которой красавица отдыхает в обрамлении своего бального платья из тюля и атласа. Этот образ нашел отражение в снимках Марио Тестино для издания 2009 года, где модель Лара Стоун предстает перед нами в наряде от Dior Haute Couture - в платье, на котором нет отпечатка эпохи.

Безусловно, журнал - это не только визуальные образы, и в книге Эллисон множество интересных текстов, богатых информацией, так что каждый снимок может быть оценен не только с точки зрения искусства фотографии, но и как часть большой истории. Например, мы узнаем, что моделью на снимке Клиффорда Коффина в фотосессии в Стоунхендже была Черри Маршалл, которая служила курьером в годы Второй мировой войны, что Жакетту Уиллер, укутанную в тончайший розовый атлас от Dior, фотографировал Тим Уокер для пантомимы в британском Vogue и что Кейт Бланшетт позировала фотографу Регану Кэмерону в платье от Alexander McQueen для обложки британского Vogue в 2005 году сразу после вручения ей премии «Оскар».

Since its first cover on December 17, 1892, Vogue has had people talking.

Vogue: The Covers chronicles the extraordinary images that have reflected—and transformed—the world of style for more than 120 years.

More than 300 of the most beautiful, provocative, and fashion-forward covers ever produced are highlighted alongside the history and stories behind the covers themselves.

Organized in chronological order by decade, Vogue: The Covers begins with the illustrated covers from the magazine’s inception in 1892 and spans the 20th century to the present day, charting the evolution of fashion, art, culture, and photography for the past 120 years.

Featuring the work of influential artists—Helmut Newton, Irving Penn, Richard Avedon, Bruce Weber, Herb Ritts, Steven Meisel, Annie Leibovitz, and Mario Testino—the book is a stunning celebration of the magazine and its unparalleled influence.

One of the world’s leading fashion magazines, W will celebrate its 40th anniversary with this volume - a collection of the most influential and iconic features and photos culled from its first four decades.

W is renowned for its groundbreaking, provocative, often controversial fashion stories by such photographers as Steven Klein, Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott, Bruce Weber, Mario Sorrenti, Tim Walker, Juergen Teller, and Paolo Roversi, among many others, the best of which fill these pages.

Divided into three sections - Who, Where, and Wow - this volume shows why W’s unique blend of unparalleled access, cultural smarts, and visual panache has always kept it at the forefront of not only the world of fashion, but also in art, design, style, beauty, celebrity, and society.

Appearing in these pages are many of the world’s most talented, beautiful, and accomplished from a vast array of fields, including Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, Madonna, Damien Hirst, Alexander McQueen, Daphne Guinness, Beyoncé, Karl Lagerfeld, Kate Moss, the Beckhams, Tilda Swinton, and Jackie Kennedy.

In addition to a foreword by the book’s editor, Stefano Tonchi, W: The First 40 Years also includes newly commissioned essays from writers Lynn Hirschberg, Marian McEvoy, and Vince Aletti. Longtime W contributor Christopher Bagley has edited the text and written revealing captions that draw upon the magazine’s most memorable interviews and reporting.

Superb colour illustrations of hard-hitting propaganda and groundbreaking graphic art include such unforgettable images as Alfred Leete's 'Your Country Needs You', as well as documentary photographs of posters in situ and material from the world of advertising.

Covering topics as diverse as advertising in World War I, the Bolshevik Revolution, the Spanish Civil War, Germany and Occupied Europe in World War II, anti-nuclear campaigns and Vietnam, the book is comprehensive, accessible and an invaluable resource for anyone interested in history or graphic design.

The Arts and Crafts Movement is probably best known for the furniture that came from it. Indeed, many claim that the furniture from this period was the one truly great product of the era. Now, enthusiasts of this popular furniture style can follow the rise of the design movement from its beginnings in mid-19th century England to the major American manufacturers of the 20th century.

Warman's Arts & Crafts Furniture covers the giants of the designers and manufacturers of Arts and Crafts furniture: John Ruskin, Charles Rennie Mackintosh, William Morris, the Stickley Brothers, designer Harvey Ellis, Charles Limbert, Elbert Hubbard and the Roycrofters, Charles Rohlfs, and more. Over 1,500 listings include detailed descriptions and pricing for each piece, and more than 1,000 vibrant full-color photos convey the functional beauty of the era's furniture.

The original idea for this book came as the result of observing the complex warning signs on farm equipment. The project quickly led to the signs used on other equipment and products found elsewhere. The result is the collection of macabre little motifs in this book. And now, for your amusement, education and inspiration, here are some 160 different depictions of all the worst hazards imaginable.

Water, so essential to the survival of all known life forms, has recently become an item of luxury among more fashion-conscious and demanding consumers. The designer water phenomena is a trend whose roots can be traced back to Paris and has spread with astonishing success to all the world’s major cities. Water Pack! presents a meticulous and international selection of the best packaging designs for bottled water, brands which might be found on the menus in today’s most select restaurants, bars and spa shops. The bottle’s design is nearly as essential as the origin of the water itself, a substance so elemental, colorless, and anodyne that nature has provided it free of charge, while human beings have turned it into a truly desirable, powerful and distinctive item.

Watercolour painting, the painting with pigments suspended or dissolved in water, is one of the oldest forms of painting. It is also a form of painting that is very suitable for practical applications, as the subtle colours allow for a wide array of uses. Watercolour Patterns contains a collection of some 140 patterns, which were especially made for this edition by Joost van Roojen, who has specialised in watercolours since the 1950s and has gained a fabulous technical mastery of this medium.

Agile Rabbit Editions contain stunning images for use as a graphic resource, or inspiration. All the illustrations are stored in high-resolution format on the enclosed free CD-ROM and are ready to use for professional quality printed media and web page design. The pictures can also be used to produce postcards or to decorate your letters, flyers, etc. They can be imported directly from the CD into most design, image-manipulation, illustration, word-processing and e-mail programs; no installation is required. For most applications, single images can be used free of charge.

Our first thoughts, as we set about making our selection of Invitations for the book was that this was an area of design with little relevance. Despite the fact that almost all designers create invitations of one kind or another, for clients, events, or for personal use…. finding specifically relevant examples within global projects, was easier said than done. We sought therefore to make a collection of highly creative and communicative pieces, some for conceptual expression and others for simple or powerful graphics. Our collection of invitations includes exquisite concepts transformed into graphic realities. These small but stunning examples are both a source of inspiration and a magnet for any event.
