Classic posters from the last 300 years and the stories behind them.

Posters have always been designed to seek an immediate response. From the time when paper was first affordable, the poster has been used to provoke a direct reaction, whether a public appeal, a legal threat, a call to arms, or the offer of entertainment. Newspapers might have the advantage of ubiquity in spreading the word, but a poster could be tightly targeted by its location.

Organized chronologically, 100 Posters That Changed the World charts the history of poster design from their earliest forms as a means of information communication to the more subtle visual communication of the 21^st century.

As printing became cheaper, posters were used for more than just promoting the capture of local villains or announcing government decrees. Advertisements took over, citing up-and-coming events, auctions, public meetings, political rallies, sports games, lectures and theatrical performances.

The technological leaps from engraving to aquatints to lithography, chromolithography and the offset press, all had their impact on what could be advertised by poster, and the art form took off spectacularly in the late 19^th century with the influence of Lautrec and the Paris nightclubs. From then on, the poster became a sophisticated means of visual communication.

In the West it was used to sell products – in the East it was used to sell regimes and control behaviour.

Along with historic moments in poster evolution, 100 Posters That Changed the World charts the most impactful designs of the last 300 years – images that communicate a message whether commercial or political, images that sell a film, a musical, a cause or used for decoration, inspiration, motivation and affirmation. The affirmation for teenagers in the 1970s that Farah Fawcett was looking at you.

In this lavishly illustrated style compendium, InStyle magazine fashion director Hal Rubenstein reveals the fascinating origins and legacies of the most stunning dresses ever created.

Perfect for backstage story snoops, gossip lovers, die-hard shoppers, and pop culture mavens who can't get enough of these indelible, once-in-a-lifetime creations, 100 Unforgettable Dresses will change the way you think about couture forever.

This book documents in pictures the most exciting and diverse period in fashion: from 1900 to today, covering high society, uniforms, sportswear, streetwear and couture. It will appeal to everyone with an interest in fashion as well as students.

The last hundred or so years bore witness to the transformation of women’s fashion. The restrictive corsetry of the early twentieth century gave way to looser styles such as those made fashionable by French fashion designer Paul Poiret. As women’s lives changed dramatically under the shadow of two World Wars, so the style of female dress was altered beyond recognition. From home dressmaking to couture, from rationing to ‘The New Look’, from the birth of the teenager to mass manufacture, from high society to celebrity culture.

Over 400 photographs and illustrations, many published for the first time, tell the stylish story of a fashion revolution.

A visual feast of 400 dazzling images, this is a comprehensive survey of the genre over the last century. The book also offers an overview of the development of fashion, as seen through the eyes of the greatest illustrators of the day.

Early in the century, fashion illustration reflected new, liberating currents in art and culture, such as the exoticism of the Ballets Russes, while the postwar period saw inspiration from the great Parisian couturiers. After the dominance of the celebrity fashion photographer in the 60s, a new generation of illustrators emerged, embracing the medium of the computer, while many returned to more traditional techniques.

If you pick up a copy of this week's "Heat" magazine in 30 years time, think how funny it will seem. Our obsession with B list celebrities' private lives, weight loss and reality TV shows, will become ridiculous in the light of tomorrow's trends. Magazines, as ephemeral snapshots of a moment in history, can tell us much about the way society and culture work.

This collection of magazine covers draws upon archival material from the late nineteenth century to the present day, and from a broad international spectrum of publications. An emphasis on post-war culture is supplemented by a fascinating record of earlier publications, providing an insight into the popular literature and culture of the last 100 years.

Divided into themed chapters, the book will present fashion and women's magazines, such as "Vogue", "Cosmopolitan", and "Harper's Bazaar"; news publications - from the era-defining photo-journalism of "Life" and "Time", through "The Economist", to more contentious titles, such as "Paris Match"; and from music magazines from the mainstream - "Rolling Stone", the "NME" - to the underground punk publications of the 1970s, such as "Sniffing Glue" and "Oz".

Each chapter will be accompanied by an introductory text covering the history and context of each magazine type, with extended captions throughout. Individual covers are presented in terms of their importance to their historical and visual context; in addition, the book will explore the importance of titles and publishing houses, such as Conde Nast, as a whole, and their influence on culture.

100 malles de legende Louis Vuitton

"Покажи мне твой багаж, и я скажу тебе, кто ты". Этот рекламный слоган 1921 г. очень верно ухватывает суть тех интимных взаимоотношений, которые складываются у каждого путешественника с чемоданами и кофрами - его спутниками и компаньонами. От легендарных экспрессов до трансатлантических судов, от автомобилей до первых летательных аппаратов - кофры Louis Vuitton пересекали время и границы. С 1854 года Луи Вю-иттон, "изготовитель сундуков, кофров и упаковки", предлагает современные предметы багажа, сочетающие практичность и элегантность, идеально приспособленные к новым видам транспорта и вызванным ими изменениям в жизни. С тех же самых пор Модный дом Louis Vuitton экипирует как путешественников и искателей приключений, так и великих мира сего, принцев, денди, законодателей моды, артистов, а также многих других. Махараджа Бароды, Саворньян де Бразза, Дуглас Фэрбенкс, Эрнест Хемингуэй, Жанна Ланвэн, а также Дэмиен Херст и Шерон Стоун путешествуют с багажом Louis Vuitton.

В этом эксклюзивном издании с предисловием Патрика Луи Вюиттона на основании более чем 800 документов описаны самые красивые и самые необычные изделия Дома. Сундук-кровать, сундук-гардероб, шкатулка для чая, несессер с туалетными принадлежностями, цирковой сундук, сундук-библиотека или ящичек для икры - столько невероятных вещей, за которыми угадываются захватывающие приключения их владельцев. Путеводитель по технике изготовления кофров - библия для мастеров этого ремесла - раскрывает секреты производства. Эта книга-итог показывает, что от первых сундуков с выпуклой крышкой до последних моделей, изготовляемых в мастерской в Аньере в наши дни, Louis Vuitton всегда воодушевляла одна идея - увековечить свое мастерство и превратить искусство путешествовать в искусство жить.
