Allure

Legendary fashion maven Diana Vreeland - at the urging of her editor Jackie O - authored a classic volume in the 1980s on the quality of "allure" in fashion and in life. Now back in print, this new edition features a foreword from the incomparable fashion designer Marc Jacobs. Throughout Allure, Vreeland lends her famous knack for turning a phrase to an astonishing array of fashion, celebrity, and fine art photographs. Featuring images of such luminaries as Maria Callas, Gertrude Stein, and Marilyn Monroe - shot by superstar photographers such as Man Ray, Cecil Beaton, and Richard Avedon - Allure is poised to deliver Vreeland's unparalleled point of view to a whole new generation.
