The stunning designs of Worth, Paquin, Poiret, Fortuny, and more are showcased in this look at the glamorous world of Art Nouveau fashion. 

Providing an introduction to the style, which overlaps with late Arts and Crafts in the 1890s and early Modernism in the 1910s, the book focuses on these important designers before discussing Art Nouveau jewelry and accessories, advertising, the influence of exotic Eastern cultures, and artists, among them Beardsley, Klimt, and Mackintosh. 

New color photographs of gar­ments from the V&A’s collection are accompanied by period images of such style icons as Lily Langtry, Loïe Fuller, and Consuelo Vanderbilt, many previously unpublished. Striking and seductive, Art Nouveau styles were revived by the counterculture in the late 1960s and continue to resonate today.

A stunning showcase of Azzedine Alaïa’s remarkable fashion collection, most published here for the first time.

Azzedine Alaïa (1935–2017) was not only a world-renowned fashion designer but also an avid collector of vintage fashion. Now a major exhibition at the Palais Galliera, Paris, showcases the extensive collection he built up over the decades, driven by his fascination with the history of couture and his desire to conserve its heritage for future generations.

Accumulated in the utmost secrecy and never revealed during his lifetime, the sumptuous selection of garments ranges from the 19th-century elegance of Jacques Doucet and the House of Worth to the names that shaped 20th-century fashion – Chanel, Balenciaga, Dior, Schiaparelli – and on to contemporary innovators such as Jean Paul Gaultier and Alexander McQueen.

Captured in specially taken photographs, these meticulously crafted pieces are a tribute to Alaïa’s unerring tastes, to the couturiers who inspired and influenced him, and to his endless respect for the craftspeople that created such objects of lasting beauty.

Miren Arzalluz is curator and head of collections at Fundación Cristóbal Balenciaga. Olivier Saillard is a fashion historian and director of the Alaïa Foundation.

About the Author

Sarah, “la barbière de Paris,” is an international celebrity barber known for her technical precision and eye for detail.  

Біллі Айліш - феномен моди. Її гот-скейт-аніме гардероб голосно й чітко резонує з її поколінням і всіма, хто не хоче бути визначеним. Біллі, яку обслуговують найбільші будинки моди світу, вміє підкреслювати інклюзивність, образ тіла, екологічні проблеми тощо, і водночас завжди виглядати чудово. В останньому доповненні до цього популярного серіалу модна письменниця Террі Ньюман звернула увагу на молоду мегазірку з оверсайз одягом і ще більшою позицією.
Коли Біллі Айліш увірвалася на музичну сцену у віці всього 14 років, її одяг сказав усім, ким вона є, ще до того, як вони завантажили трек. Вона була дикою і задумливою. Її одяг був великим і відповідав її погляду. Її гардероб складався з брендів, які розмовляють мовою покоління Z і всіх, хто не хоче, щоб його визначали інші. Дорослішання нічого не змінило, хоча тепер вона керує будинками моди по всьому світу. Таким чином, Біллі часто змішує та поєднує Chanel, Balenciaga, Rick Owens, Yohji Yamamoto, Raf Simons і Prada зі знахідками від Slumpy Kev, Skoot, The Incorporated і Freak City, і результат виходить за рамки метамодернізму. Цей погляд цілком може вкусити руку, яка його годує, але Айліш це не хвилює. Вона носить те, що їй подобається, коли їй подобається. І ми тут для цього.

- Приголомшливі зображення глобального явища Біллі Айліш
- Відкриття модних ідей від автора бестселерів «Гаррі Стайлз і одяг, який він носить» і «Ріанна та одяг, який вона носить»
- Елегантна презентація в твердій обкладинці, включаючи обкладинку зі справжньої тканини
- Ідеальний подарунок для шанувальників і модниць

Террі Ньюман працювала у індустрії моди понад 20 років, як редактор i-D, Attitude і Self Service і як автор дописів для газет, зокрема Guardian, Independent, Times і Sunday Times. Вона також написала та презентувала програми про моду у Великій Британії для Channel 4 (She's Gotta Have It і Slave). Автор книжок Гаррі Стайлз і одяг, який він носить (ACC), Легендарні автори та одяг, який вони носили та Легендарні художники та одяг, який вони носили (Harper Design), вона брала участь у книгах, зокрема i-D Fashion Now, Fashion Now 2 і Soul i-D. Зараз вона читає лекції в Університеті творчих мистецтв в Епсомі, Англія, і живе в Лондоні з чоловіком і двома дітьми.

Roberto Cavalli is a high-end luxury Italian brand internationally renowned for its iconic animal prints, patterns, and textures. Launched as a fashion label in 1970 by Roberto Cavalli, the lifestyle brand has since become synonymous with glamorous urban chic, expanding to include furniture and interior design accessories with the launch of Roberto Cavalli Home in 2012. Award-winning designer to the stars Fausto Puglisi took the helm as creative director at Roberto Cavalli in 2020.

Cecil Beaton (1904–1980) is one of the most celebrated British Portrait photographers of the twentieth century and is renowned for his images of elegance, glamour and style. His influence on portrait photography was profound and lives on today in the work of many contemporary photographers.

In the 1920s and 30s Beaton used his camera, his ambition and his larger-than-life personality to mingle with a flamboyant and rebellious group of artists and writers, socialites and partygoers whose spirit and style cut a dramatic swathe through the epoch.

This miniature cocktail book presents a selection of dazzling and delectable infusions, inspired by the ‘Bright Young Things’ with whom Beaton mixed, illustrated with Beaton’s own unique, often humorous sketches and drawings. Featuring highballs, coolers, slings and fizzes fit to please any Lord, Lady or Viscountess, this book and its recipes bring to life a deliriously eccentric, glamorous and creative era.

A rich celebration of the dynamic spirit and beauty of Chanel’s modern classic J12 watch

Chanel’s J12 watch revolutionized the standards of watches for women, combining technical sophistication with the allure of modern design. The J12 has evolved into a classic watchmaking icon of the twenty-first century.

Since its arrival just over twenty years ago, the J12 has drawn its inspiration from Chanel’s drive to shake up the codes by combining a daring artistic approach with superlative technical finesse. The J12 watch transformed ceramic into a precious material, and rewrote two hundred years of watchmaking with the innovative brilliance of its design. A text by noted watch connoisseur Nicholas Foulkes explores the extraordinary conception, execution and history of the Chanel J12. Enhanced by a strikingly original selection of fine photographs, this volume celebrates twenty years of the most beautiful and technically refined watches ever worn on the wrist.

About the Author:

He contributes to a wide range of newspapers and magazines around the world, including the FT’s How To Spend It Magazine, Vanity Fair, Country Life and British GQ.
