A must for all fashion enthusiasts, movie buffs, and celebrity watchers, 100 Unforgettable Dresses showcases the behind-the-scenes stories of the most memorable, influential dresses from the worlds of fashion, film, television, society, and politics. 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.

About the Author:

Cally Blackman is a writer and lecturer with degrees in Fashion Design and History of Art, and an MA in History of Dress from the Courtauld Institute of Art, London. She teaches at various institutions, including Central Saint Martin’s College of Art & Design. Her previous publications include 100 Years of Menswear, 100 Years of Fashion Illustration, Costume: From 1500 to the Present Day and The 20s and 30s: Flappers and Vamps.

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.

Over 1,000 journal pages presented in one beautiful full-color book

Journals offer their makers a safe place to dream, doodle, rant, and reinvent themselves. They offer viewers rich, visual inspiration. There is a fascination with these revealing and often beautiful pages of self-exploration and personal expression. Journals offer a tantalizing, voyeuristic view of an interior life. Journaling has seeped into popular culture in a big way and this collection provides a wide array of ideas, techniques and themes to inspire and inform mixed media and journaling enthusiasts.

This is the first book to offer examples of over 1000 journal pages in one eye-catching, visual format. Artists can embrace and experiment with this medium and will benefit from this rich collection.

Making artist trading cards (ATCs) is a hugely popular activity for artists. Originally a paper/collage-based art form, ATCs have caught on with crafters working in a range of mediums and are now just as popular among fabric and mixed-media artists. ATCs are mini art works, the size of a playing card, often created as limited editions. The back of each card contains the artist's name and contact information. The idea behind the cards is to make them and then give, trade, or share them with others. This collection inspires with 1,000 original cards in a beautiful pageant of color, composition, and creative use of materials. The book also includes a special section devoted to explaining what ATCs are, how to get started, and includes some exciting technique information. Curated by Patricia Bolton, founder and editor-in-chief of two of the most exciting creative magazines on the newsstands, the book meets the Quarry Books mission of offering artistic and challenging new ideas to traditional paper artists, scrapbookers, mixed-media artists, and quilters by merging paper, fabric, and surface embellishment through experimentation and discovery.

More than any other piece of furniture, the chair has been subjected to the wildest dreams of the designers. The particular curve of a back-rest, or the twist of a leg, the angle of a seat or the colour of the entire artefact all reflect the stylistic consciousness of each era.

From Gerrit Rietveld and Alvar Aalto via Verner Panton to Eva Zeisel; from Art Nouveau to International Style, from Pop Art to Postmodernism, the phenomenon of the chair is so complex that it requires a reference work as comprehensive as this to do it full justice. They are all here: Thonet's bentwood chairs and Hoffmann's sitting-machines, Marcel Breuer's Wassily chair and Ron Arad's avant-garde armchairs.

The book, a slightly abbreviated version of our classic title 1000 Chairs, devotes one page to each chair, displayed on its own as pure form, with biographical and historical information about the chairs and their designers. A special treat for anyone who loves design and a must for collectors!
