Fashion design is a process of investigating, researching and constantly questioning what you are doing and why. This book shows students and professional designers how to use visual research to develop a personal aesthetic as a fashion designer in a global industry.

The first section of this comprehensive guide demonstrates the research process underpinning the work of design icons from Coco Chanel and Jean Paul Gaultier to Vivienne Westwood and Alexander McQueen. It reveals the many different areas of inspiration they draw on, from precursors such as Christian Dior’s ‘New Look’ to traditional textiles from around the world.

The second section introduces a wide range of themes that often inform fashion design research, including vintage and retro, the use of archives and the influence of art movements such as op-art and surrealism.

A series of detailed case studies investigates the research process in the work of designers such as Paul Smith, Comme des Garçons and Anna Sui, among others. Many visual examples are included and influences are analysed.

Topics include:
• Historical Research • Art as Inspiration • Uniforms • Heritage • World Architecture and Fashion • Nature and Science • Denim and Workwear • Sportswear • Zeitgeist • Film • Style Icons • Street Style • Concepts • Fabric Manipulation • Colour • Structure

The fashion world is creative, expressive, impressive, and always fast-moving. The Fashion Yearbook 2022 is a beautifully illustrated book showcasing the best fashion series and photos from the international fashion scene of 2021.

Flower arranging has never been simpler or more enticing. The women behind Studio Choo, the hottest floral design studio in the country, have created a flower-arranging bible for today's aesthetic. Filled with an array of stunning, easy-to-find flowers, it features 400 high-resolution photos, more than 40 step-by-step slideshows, and tappable pop-tips throughout.

Шарф Hermès – ікона стилю. Цей оманливо простий шовковий квадрат, який носять члени королівської сім’ї та знаменитості, яким захоплювалися та яким захоплювалися, а тепер жадібно збирав, — це набагато більше, ніж просто модний аксесуар: це легенда.

З моменту появи першого шарфа в 1937 році Будинок Hermès випустив понад дві тисячі різних моделей. Ця книга досліджує цю розкішну історію через розкішний вибір шарфів, вибраних на основі семи десятиліть творчих інновацій. Від класичних дизайнів, які втілюють традиції Hermès, до дико вигадливих стилів сучасних дизайнерів, Будинок завжди прокладає нові шляхи, але ніколи не боїться використовувати свіжий і часто дотепний підхід до власної спадщини.

Шарф ніколи не є роботою однієї людини; на кожному етапі його створення талант і майстерність поєднуються, щоб створити оброблений вручну витвір мистецтва. Ці якості яскраво проявляються в розкішних ілюстраціях, по черзі грайливих і поетичних, які ведуть читача в яскравий світ, наповнений безліччю мотивів. вони варіюються від тем кінного спорту, які на міжнародному рівні асоціюються з брендом Hermès, через історію Франції та природний світ до глобальних культур.

Від яскравої розкоші до витонченої гармонії кожен шарф передає настрій і кожен розповідає історію. Тепер ці історії зібрані в книзі, яка порадує давніх шанувальників і завоює безліч нових шанувальників цього символу позачасової елегантності.

Від авторки книги The Newlywed Table (друком випущено 70 000 примірників), The Hostess Handbook пропонує читачам 100 простих рецептів для розваг, поради щодо планування вечірок та ретельно підібрані меню, щоб втілити найсмачніші та найприємніші зустрічі, від епічного святкового банкету до невимушеної зустрічі на задньому дворі чи натхненної вечері.

У чому секрет кожної гарної вечірки? Чи це смачна, але не надто вишукана їжа? Теплота хорошого господаря, який не зникає на кухні посеред ночі? Гарний стіл чи еклектичне поєднання скляного посуду? Це все вищезазначене, і тепер вам не потрібно хвилюватися, тому що The Hostess Handbook показує, як опанувати мистецтво розваг.

Авторка Марія Жижка починає з першого правила планування вечірок (адже правил немає!), а потім розповідає читачам про деякі варіанти та міркування, щоб комфортно розмістити гостей – від посуду до порад та стратегій декорування. Серед рецептів є закуски, гарніри та салати, настільки смачні, що вони могли б стати частиною всієї страви, як-от курячі крильця з абрикосово-медово-чилі соусом та ньоккі з зубочистками в паніровці з орегано. Основні страви можна приготувати заздалегідь (грудинка з морквою та харісою в маслі), і гості повернуться за ще (курка в скоринці з картопляних чіпсів та зелених оливок). Крім того, є чудові десерти, що підходять для будь-якого свята (від сендвічів з імбирним печивом та лимонним морозивом до павлови з ромашковим кремом та цитрусовими). ​​Коктейлі та безалкогольні напої – глечик Негроні, ігристий полунично-ревіневий еліксир – спрощують роботу бармена.

Протягом усієї книги Жижка пропонує експертні поради, щоб допомогти читачам пройти весь процес планування вечірки, від сервірування столу до прибирання неминучого розливу червоного вина. Як бонус, чотирнадцять кураторських меню, включаючи пікнік на винос, недільну вечерю для всієї родини або святковий бенкет з нагоди підвищення, позбавляють вас турбот про планування страв, що робить зустрічі з близькими ще простішими. Зрештою, хіба не в цьому вся суть?

The first illustrated monograph dedicated to the history of the House of Worth, the world’s first haute couture house

Arriving in Paris in 1845, at the age of twenty and with only a few francs in his pocket, Charles Frederick Worth would go on to build the most prominent, innovative and successful fashion house of the century. Worth was inspired by a love of fine art, luxurious fabrics and his vision of the female ideal. He was the first to set out to dictate new styles and silhouettes to his elite clientele – not the other way around – hosting them in his rue de la Paix salons, which included ground-breaking ‘sportswear’ and ‘maternity’ departments, as well as silk, velvet and brocade rooms, and a special salon with closed shutters and gas lighting designed to allow clients to try on ball gowns in lighting conditions precisely matched to those of the event.

Organized chronologically and illustrated with striking ensembles (including photographs of details that reveal the garments’ intricate construction and craftsmanship), paintings and documents sourced from both private family archives and the best fashion collections from museums around the world, The House of Worth is an inspiring tribute to the house that started it all.
