An overview of the most famous classic bags as well as the latest and hottest Instagram stars
 
Women love handbags because they are a perfect vehicle — not just for keys, credit cards, and lipstick, but also their dreams and desires. Luxury labels made the humble purse into a billion-dollar business in the 20th century, but the purse is more than just a status symbol. Because it is constantly being reinvented, it wields a greater influence on everyday fashion than any hemline or silhouette. For the Love of Bags is a homage to the power of the pocketbook: from icons like the Kelly Bag, the first “must-have” item ever, to popular Paris fashion house labels and the latest Instagram stars, this book details the history of the “it” bag and decodes the messages handbags communicate.

In Gods and Kings Dana Thomas, author of Deluxe, tells the story of how John Galliano and Alexander McQueen changed the face of fashion

In the first decade of the 21st century the fashion world was dominated by two different but equally successful and turbulent figures. Within twelve months, Alexander McQueen had committed suicide, and John Galliano had professionally imploded. Who was to blame? And how was fashion changed by their rise and fall? Spanning the 80s, 90s and noughties, Gods and Kings tells the story of these two charismatic figures and times of great change in the world of fashion, from London's raucous art and club scene to the old-world glamour of Parisian couture, and reveals the machinations of this notoriously secretive industry.

About the Author:

Dana Thomas has written for The New York Times magazine, the New Yorker, WSJ, the Financial Times, Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, and was the European editor of Condé Nast Portfolio.

Hollywood star, royal bride, beloved princess – Grace Kelly lived all three roles with a style all of her own. Renowned for her cool beauty and faultless good taste, the young actress stood apart from the other film sirens of the fifties, with 1000s of women, both in the US and Europe, emulating her classic yet accessible style. Her marriage to Prince Rainier of Monaco in 1956 catapulted Grace Kelly to further fame and cemented her influence on the world of fashion. From the Parisian catwalks to the pages of Vogue, the ‘Grace Kelly Look’ became the look of the moment.

This book, the first to look exclusively at Grace’s unique style, accompanies an enchanting exhibition at the V&A opening in April 2010. Sumptuously illustrated, the book introduces Grace’s glamorous wardrobe as she transformed herself from actress to bride to princess.

Грейс Коддингтон называют самым влиятельным в мире фэшн-редактором и абсолютно лучшим стилистом. "Без нее Vogue не был бы библией индустрии моды и стиля", - считает журнал Time. "Грейс - гениальна. Никто не чувствует направление развития моды лучше нее... Я была на седьмом небе, когда она присоединилась к нашей команде", - это слова Анны Винтур, главного редактора Vogue, самой влиятельной фигуры сегодняшнего мира моды.

В автобиографии Грейс откровенно и остроумно рассказывает о своей жизни, более полувека неразрывно связанной с модой. Она знакомит читателя с всемирно известными дизайнерами, фотографами, стилистами и моделями, звездами музыки и кино, делает его свидетелем уникальных событий, которыми так богата ее яркая карьера.

С подкупающей искренностью Грейс пишет о глубоко личном - автомобильной аварии, поставившей крест на ее модельной карьере, о двух замужествах, смерти сестры Розмари, дружбе с главным редактором Harper's Bazaar Лиз Тилберис, романе длиной в тридцать лет с Дидье Малижем... И, конечно же, о непростых, но творчески плодотворных отношениях с Анной Винтур, которые и после двадцати лет их совместной работы продолжают интриговать мир глянца.

The second and final volume of the collected best work of Creative Director at Large of American Vogue and international fashion icon Grace Coddington

This handsome slipcased edition showcases work of the last fifteen years by legendary Vogue editor Grace Coddington. The book celebrates seventeen of the master photographers with whom Coddington has collaborated - including Steven Meisel, Annie Leibovitz, Craig McDean, David Sims, Mario Testino, and Marcus Piggot and Mert Alas - in a sumptuous compilation of Coddington's most beloved fashion stories.

About the author:

Grace Coddington's extraordinary talent and fierce dedication to her work have made her a global icon. Known through much of her career only to the fashion set, the 2009 documentary film, 'The September Issue' turned the celebrity-adverse Coddington into an international star. In 2016, after nearly thirty years as creative director of Vogue US, Coddington embarked on her new role as the magazine's creative director-at-large.

A celebration of the work of legendary fashion stylist Grace Coddington during her first 30 years at Vogue UK and US.

First published in 2002, the reissue of this 408-page monograph of work by the legendary fashion stylist Grace Coddington is also a showcase for some of the greatest photographs ever published in British and American Vogue.

It includes forewords by American Vogue Editor-in-Chief Anna Wintour and designer Karl Lagerfeld as well as personal anecdotes and insider stories of working with photographers Cecil Beaton, Irving Penn, Bruce Weber, Steven Meisel and Mario Testino and fashion-world personalities such as Naomi Campbell, Jerry Hall, Linda Evangelista and Manolo Blahnik.

About the author:

Grace Coddington's undisputed talent and impassioned commitment to her work as creative director of Vogue have made her an international style icon. The September Issue, the acclaimed 2009 documentary, focused on Grace's working relationship with Vogue Editor-in-Chief Anna Wintour. The daughter of a hotelier in Wales, Grace was a teenager when she won a Vogue modelling competition and moved to London to become one of the top models on the city's swinging 1960s fashion scene. In 1968, Grace decided she wanted to work behind the camera and started work as a junior editor at British Vogue. She soon established herself as a master stylist and creative director. "I hate fashion trends so in my head I write a script to make it less fashion", has always been her credo, storytelling with clothing that is the quintessence of Grace Coddington's work.

This book covers the high spectrum of fashion graphics from advertising campaings and fashion photography to promotional graphics such as fashion-catalogues, fashion-show invitation cards, and labels and tag designs. In celebrating the successful experiences to fashion brands, Graphic Design for Fashion explores the diversity of their uniqueness and personality.

Yuppies, Yippies, Jet Setters, Bright Young Things, Generation X, Generation Y . . . and now the Gypset.

Gypset Style explores the unconventional, wanderlust lives of these high-low cultural nomads and the bohemian enclaves they inhabit, as well as their counterculture forbears, such as the Victorian explorers, the Lost Generation, the Beatniks, and the hippies. And along the way, author Julia Chaplin looks back at quintessential gypsy boho moments in social history.
