The work of one of the most influential and innovative hat designers of this century. Philip Treacy’s career over the last two decades has been prolific and high-profile. A visual delight, this book shares Treacy’s favorite designs in 250 striking photographs, curated by Treacy himself, and showcases his collaborations and personal relationships. Treacy has said, “Every hat I have ever made has begun in my mind as a photograph. I can see it on the model, at the right angle, before I even begin.” Indeed, his hats have been photographed by the most iconic image makers of our time, including Patrick Demarchelier, Richard Avedon, Steven Meisel, Mario Testino, Bruce Weber, and Irving Penn. And his hats have been modeled on equally famous heads, ranging from Grace Jones and Lady Gaga to the Duchesses of Cornwall and Devonshire.  

Since his early friendships with Isabella Blow and Alexander McQueen, Treacy’s imaginative designs have been a synthesis of art and fashion, with materials ranging from silk and lace to Plexiglas and leather, trimmed with feathers or Swarovski crystals. Combining luxury and sophistication, his work has helped shape modern fashion. This first, highly personal book is a glamorous tour through Treacy’s world, and documents how a hat can evoke the magic of life and speak to the transformative power of fashion.

About the Authors:

The first monograph on fashion designer Prabal Gurung, packed with stories, design inspiration, and never-before-seen photographs

In February 2017, Prabal Gurung ended his show with a parade of feminist tees featuring phrases like This Is What a Feminist Looks Like, Voices for Choices, and We Will Not Be Silenced. A year later, his collection took inspiration from two female-dominated Asian cultures.

Activism is built into designer Gurung's ethos and the celebration of female empowerment serves as a constant focal point of his designs. He presents femininity with a bite, beauty with substance, and a diverse, inclusive world that is Stronger in Color.

Prabal Gurung offers a window into Gurung s design process, and it is filled with inspiration, mood boards, sketches, runway shots, and photographs of the clothing from the last 10 years. The Prabal Gurung woman is modern, intelligent, elegant, assured, and socially responsible, and this book is a celebration of people of all ages, races, shapes, sizes, sexualities, and identities.

Заснована як дім розкішних шкіряних виробів у 1913 році в Мілані, Prada вийшла на сферу моди, коли Міучча Прада очолила сімейну компанію в 1979 році. Після того, як спочатку зосередилася виключно на аксесуарах, вона представила першу модну колекцію будинку в 1988 році. Невдовзі вона перетворила Prada на один із найвпливовіших у світі брендів розкоші з глибоко особистим, витонченим і тонким. підривний підхід.

Ця остаточна публікація починається короткою історією дому, за якою йде короткий біографічний профіль Міуччі Прада, перш ніж досліджувати самі колекції, упорядковані в хронологічному порядку. Кожна колекція представлена ​​коротким текстом, який розкриває її вплив і основні моменти, і проілюстрована ретельно підібраними зображеннями з подіуму, які демонструють сотні вражаючих одягів, деталей, аксесуарів, образів краси та декорацій – і, звичайно, найкращі моделі моди, які носили їх на подіумі, від Наомі Кемпбелл і Жизель до Кейт Мосс і Кайї Гербер. Завершує книгу багатий довідковий розділ, включаючи великий покажчик.

From suits to socks, tuxedos to ties, this is an utterly unique and visually exciting look at how fashionable men have been rocking polka dots, plaids, and paisley at home, at work, and at play throughout history and across the globe.

Nothing embraces the post-Covid aesthetic like a good print, and as gender-specific rules become increasingly irrelevant, today’s men are flaunting colorful patterns as proudly as ever before. This engaging and well-researched book brilliantly traces today’s eye-popping prints and embellished fashions from their historical origins. In dazzlingly illustrated chapters that focus on one specific type of print, Kit Neale traces the historical and geographical origins of contemporary trends. As multifaceted as its subject matter, the book examines floral and animal themes, camouflage and paisley, geometrics and type, even storytelling and photography — all with a wide range of relevant imagery, art and cultural history, celebrity images and fashion editorials. Whether your sartorial taste is safe or sparkly, you’ll find inspiration and insight on every page.

Втілюючи шикарну невимушеність, яка є винятково американською, сорочка поло є культурним символом, який носять усі: від кінозірок і президентів до спортсменів і артистів.

Сорочка поло для Ральфа Лорена — це те, що Міккі Маус для Діснея чи Емпайр-Стейт-Білдінг для Нью-Йорка. Незалежно від того, чи носити його з піднятим коміром, розкритим і незаправленим, чи одягнутий під піджак, Polo втілює оптимізм американського стилю. За словами Лорен: "Це чесно і від щирого серця, і, сподіваюся, саме це торкається різноманітності всіх, хто його носить. Це не сорочка, а спосіб життя".

«З галереєю зірок зі світу спорту, політики, кіно та музики — від Леонардо Ді Капріо та Спайка Лі до Білла Клінтона та Опри Уїнфрі, Фаррелла Вільямса та Вінус Вільямс — а також звичайних людей, які роблять поло своїм полотном для самовираження, сорочка Polo виглядає на незмінній крутості класичного гардеробу.

Включено повний діапазон кольорів, стилів і фасонів, у яких сорочки виготовлялися протягом більш ніж 50-річної історії. Від класичного білого до потертого Polo, від смугастого Polo до US Olympic, US Open і Wimbledon Championship, цей каталог відзначає повний спектр Polo, що робить його мрією колекціонера.

This exclusive volume presents the best features and radically designed pages of the 1990’s most uncompromising document of alternative music, style, and pop culture.

Founded in 1992, Ray Gun was the only magazine wherein a die-hard culture seeker could find information on alternative music and the street-inspired style that really mattered. Punk rock had torn pop music to shreds and created a hunger for an original lifestyle beyond mainstream culture, and Ray Gun was its graphic chronicler: across its pages blasted a visual feast made up of era-defining artists such as Sonic Youth or Iggy Pop, music-inspired art, and a complete redefinition of sartorial style. The magazine’s original art director, David Carson, and his peers who followed, created an entirely new visual culture that shattered the limitations of graphic design.

Ray Gun was as radical as the lifestyle it reported on, deeply committed to visually representing an alternative culture as a new way of seeing and being in the world. With over 200 full-color photographs, Ray Gun: The Bible of Music and Style gathers the most outrageous pages from the magazine that helped to shape the ’90s. This epic anthology features exclusive photographs and articles on rock legends such as R.E.M., HenryRollins, Jane’s Addiction, The Pixies, Dinosaur Jr., U2, Marilyn Manson, Smashing Pumpkins, NineInch Nails, Mudhoney, Pearl Jam, Bjork, Morrissey, PJ Harvey, Beastie Boys, Soundgarden, Beck and an exclusive interview with David Bowie.

About the Authors:

Marvin Scott Jarrett is a celebrated creative force in the worlds of publishing, film, and television, as well as founder of Ray Gun and Nylon. Liz Phair is a legendary alt-rock goddess; Wayne Coyne is frontman of The Flaming Lips; Dean Kuipers is an arts and environmental writer; Steven Heller is an art director and co-chair of the MFA Design Department at the School of Visual Arts.

Безпрецедентний погляд на повсякденний жіночий одяг — від уніформи дівчини-скаута Сільвії Плат до психоделічних мікроміні, сучасних костюмів і уніформи робітниць фаст-фуду — цей захоплюючий том показує, як американські жінки різного походження жили, працювали та одягалися протягом 200 років.

Інноваційний у своїй зосередженості на повсякденному одязі звичайних американських жінок — темі, якій занедбано в більшості історій моди — Real Clothes, Real Lives висвітлює понад 300 предметів одягу та аксесуарів з колекції історичного одягу Smith College. Це унікальне дослідження вшановує незліченну кількість життів, простежуючи крізь призму одягу, як змінювалися ролі жінок протягом десятиліть. Кожен твір містить яскраві історії про жінку, яка його носила, того, хто зробив або купив його, а також її контекст у місці та часі. Багато одягу скромні та недорогі, будь то домашнього чи готового одягу. Деякі з них є єдиними у своєму роді; інші є прикладами розумного виготовлення, що здається особливо актуальним сьогодні; і більшість відображає популярні стилі своєї епохи. Серед багатьох надзвичайних прикладів – рідкісна уніформа часів Першої світової війни, яку носила американка, яка працювала в тилу ворога, і костюм танцівниці гоу-гоу 1970-х років.

Виняткова фотографія та багаті архівні візуальні матеріали супроводжують читабельні тексти, які пропонують велику кількість історичного та соціального аналізу моди та фемінізму, які рідко розглядаються.

As our climate, ecological and social crises converge, urgent action is needed to maximize our chances of survival. A new commercial approach is possible but it requires a systemic shift, with companies learning to operate as part of a wider 'ecosystem', allowing fashion to restore what it has taken.

Regenerative Fashion presents a roadmap for new ways of doing fashion. To keep our planet safe, we must cut production and end our dependency on fossil fuels. We must also create dignified livelihoods for the millions of people working in the industry. By using natural resources, paying factory workers and farmers a living wage and scaling up craft production, we can not only rebuild soils, ecosystems and biodiversity, but also support decarbonization, regenerate communities and ensure a just transition for all.

Part guide and part manifesto, this book shares stories of our interconnectedness with the natural world and each other, divided into sections on Nature & Materials; People, Livelihoods & Crafts; and New Economy & Leadership. Fully illustrated throughout, it features interviews from best-practice designers and businesses around the world, as well as thought pieces from leading campaigners within the industry.

She has over 20 years' experience as global CEO of the company she founded, People Tree, developing the first sustainable and Fair Trade supply chains and standards, and she has various advisory roles with businesses, networks and charities.

Nineties fashion-from grunge, to Clueless's Alaïa, to Margiela's new couture-is an essential reference point for contemporary style. This book, created in tandem with an exhibition at The Museum at FIT, documents the changing culture, attitudes, and creatives that ushered in our visual age.

Minimalism. Deconstruction. The rejuvenation of established houses. These are just a few of the concepts that have come to define 1990s fashion. Others include an increased concern with environmentalism, developing technologies and the beginning of the fashion internet, freewheeling historical references, and a predilection for lifting significant styles from other cultures (the issues raised by this 'borrowing' are reviewed through a contemporary lens). In the twenty years since the decade ended, the fashion world has experienced several nineties revivals.

Reinvention and Restlessness: Fashion in the 90s focuses specifically on designers who challenged the expected appearance or workings of high fashion, and who played an important role in laying the foundation for fashion of the twenty-first century, including: Tom Ford, John Galliano, Alexander McQueen, Marc Jacobs, Michael Kors, Martin Margiela, Stella McCartney, Helmut Lang, Jil Sander, Yohji Yamamoto, Rei Kawakubo, and Viktor & Rolf. Additional chapters address changes to fashion editorials and campaigns (under talents like Steven Meisel, Corinne Day, Inez & Vinoodh, Mark Borthwick, and Nan Goldin), a new theatricality to runway presentations, and the emergence of fashion theory as a field.

The definitive monograph on the fashion of Rick Owens -- one of the most daring and influential designers working today -- this book documents over a decade of sublime, iconic styles.

Since the establishment of his label in 1994, Rick Owens has transformed global fashion with his provocative clothing and subversive style. Distinguished by his grunge-meets-glamour aesthetic and defiant anti-fashion stance, Owens created a dark fashion empire that has accrued a devoted international following which gravitates toward the brand's sublime tailoring, somber palette, mystical layers, and gritty elegance.

Filled with photographs of Owens's most impressive looks from the last decade, this volume is conceived as a celebration of the Rick Owens aesthetic, approximating with printing effects some of the mystery and detailing associated with the brand. Iconic imagery taken from Owens's seminal lookbooks provides a unique look at the output of design from an artist who is at once comfortable with developing technologies and respectful of traditional approaches.

With principal photography by Danielle Levitt -- who achieved considerable acclaim for her social-realist images -- this book is essential for lovers of avant-garde fashion, photography, and design.

A gorgeous tribute to the legendary shoe and accessories designs of Roger Vivier

Master designer Roger Vivier elevated both the form and decoration of ladies’ shoes during his sixty-year career. His innate Parisian style embodied a sense of perfection and craftsmanship, and his work was coveted by style icons from Elsa Schiaparelli to Jackie Onassis. Described by Yves St. Laurent as bringing to his work a "level of charm, delicacy, refinement and poetry unsurpassed," he created the first stiletto heel for a ready-to-wear shoe line with the house of Dior in 1955.

His shoes are legendary, and the tradition of his innovative spirit continues with the revival of the house by current designer Bruno Frisoni, who has updated Vivier’s concepts, bringing his own touch to signature shapes and embellishments (including the buckle pump made famous by Catherine Deneuve in Belle du Jour).

This lavish volume celebrates the history of the venerated house and charts the current evolution of the fantastic haute-couture designs that keep Roger Vivier at the top of every well-dressed woman’s list.

With gorgeous new photography of the house’s collection of vintage shoes, beautifully rendered sketches, and details of the amazing accessories coming out of Roger Vivier today, this book is as chic as the shoes that fill its pages.
