The first and only book to showcase a complete sartorial history of the Oscars' red carpet

The red carpet is so much more than fabulous gowns on famous people. It reflects the styles and values of the time, and has become a platform for often trenchant social statements. Red Carpet: Oscars presents over ninety years of fashion worn at the awards ceremony since its inception in 1929. From ready-to-wear to haute couture, it charts what stars and invitees wore across the decades, as well as the emergence of stylists, the commercialization of the red carpet and how fashion has shaped Hollywood.

The book opens with a foreword by Cate Blanchett and an introduction by Giorgio Armani, and then goes on to showcase hundreds of looks across almost a century. Each year is introduced with a short text explaining the era's fashion trends as well as the social and political influences of the day, along with carefully curated images of the most iconic and inspiring outfits.

Відвертий погляд на впливового та загадкового дизайнера, який стоїть за Comme des Garçons

Великий пантеон модельєрів породжує лише кількох творців, які є майстрами своєї справи. Рей Кавакубо з Comme des Garçons — одна з них. Широко визнана серед своїх сучасників як найважливіший та найвпливовіший дизайнер останніх сорока років, вона з моменту свого паризького дебюту в 1981 році визначила та трансформувала естетику нашого часу. Це щедро ілюстроване видання досліджує захоплення Кавакубо інтерстиціальністю, або простором між кордонами. Існуючи всередині та між дуальностями — чи то я/інший, об'єкт/суб'єкт, мистецтво/мода — роботи Кавакубо кидають виклик жорстким розмежуванням, які стали визначати усталені уявлення про ідентичність та модність, запрошуючи нас переосмислити моду як місце постійного творення, відтворення та, зрештою, гібридності. Завдяки блискучим новим фотографіям та текстам Ендрю Болтона, що спонукають до роздумів, ця книга виражає концептуальну та складну естетику цього дизайнера-візіонера. Змістовне інтерв'ю та ілюстрована хронологія кар'єри Кавакубо надають додатковий контекст.

«Мене завжди цікавив лише одяг, якого ніколи раніше не бачили, який є абсолютно новим, і те, як його можна виразити. Чи називається це модою? Я не знаю відповіді». — Рей Кавакубо

Рей Кавакубо з Comme des Garçons широко визнана однією з найважливіших і найвпливовіших дизайнерок останніх 40 років. З моменту свого паризького дебюту в 1981 році вона розмила межу між мистецтвом і модою та змінила звичні уявлення про красу, ідентичність і тіло.

Це щедро ілюстроване видання вплітає цікаву розповідь навколо експериментів Кавакубо з протиставленнями та просторами між кордонами. Блискучі нові фотографії понад 120 прикладів жіночого одягу Кавакубо для Comme des Garçons, що супроводжуються коментарями Кавакубо щодо її дизайну та процесу, розкривають її концептуальну та складну естетику, як ніколи раніше. Хронологія кар'єри Кавакубо надає додатковий контекст, а прониклива розмова з автором пропонує захопливий погляд на розум цієї модної візіонерки.

Також містить бонусний розкладний плакат із колекціями 2 Dimensions, осінь/зима 2012–13 та Invisible Clothes, весна/літо 2017. Фотографія © Паоло Роверсі, 2017.

В 1972 году Кавалли провёл свой первый показ мод в знаменитом флорентийском особняке Палаццо Пити. С этого момента его характерные принты-рисунки на шелке, замше и коже раз и навсегда вошли в моду. Книга «Roberto Cavalli» пестрит иллюстрациями роскошных показов, ставших классикой, наряду с новыми фешн-фотографиями от звездного дуэта Мерта Аласа и Маркуса Пигготта под художественным руководством Фабьена Барона - одного из самых влиятельных представителей европейской модной индустрии. Вы найдете здесь также ошеломительные образы, разработанные первым авторитетом в индустрии моды – Мари-Амели Сове – для супермоделей, блистающих на подиумах сегодня, и звезд прошлого века. Вот только некоторые имена: Дарья Вербова, Анджела Линдвалл, Кейт Мосс, Жизель Бюндхен, Кэролин Мёрфи, Синди Кроуфорд, Хайди Клум. Книга содержит помимо этого комментарии знаменитостей, киноактрис, музыкантов, выигравших «Грэмми». 

Лейбл «Кавалли» не только является символом изысканной сексуальности, но и индикатором вечно изменчивых определений гламура, и остается сегодня в мире одним из первых действительно признанных брендов. Само имя – Роберто Кавалли - стало синонимом гламура и принтов. А его пламенный итальянский стиль по-прежнему очаровывает и удивляет весь мир. Кавалли, который предпочитает, чтобы его называли не "дизайнером", а "модным художником", создает линию мужской, женской и детской одежды, аксессуары, оптику, часы, парфюм, нижнее белье и пляжную одежду. Его бутики открыты в 50 странах по всему миру.

Доходы от продажи книги «Roberto Cavalli» будут пожертвованы в фонд борьбы со СПИДом amfAR.

In celebration of the fortieth anniversary of its founding in Florence - a retrospective of classic, rich looks that created a fashion empire. The house that Roberto Cavalli founded in the sixties - with a signature look of printed silks, suede, and leather - now commemorates forty years of fashion innovation with a showcase volume lensed by fashion’s illustrious photographer-duo Mert Alas & Marcus Piggott and art-directed by Fabien Baron. The Cavalli lexicon includes stunning images styled by premier fashion authority Marie-Amélie Sauvé for supermodels of today and from fashion eras past - including Daria Werbowy, Angela Lindvall, Kate Moss, Gisele Bündchen, Carolyn Murphy, Cindy Crawford, and Heidi Klum - as well as quotes offered by celebrities, silver-screen actresses, and Grammy award-winning musicians. While always evoking refined sexuality, Cavalli as a label indicates the fluid definition of glamour and stands today as one of the first truly established international brands. The book’s proceeds will be donated to amfAR, to benefit AIDS research.

About the Author:

Florence-born fashion designer Roberto Cavalli's name has been synonymous with glam and animal prints since his first show in 1970 in Paris. His flamboyant Italian style caught on quickly, and includes lines of menswear, womenswear, children's clothing, and accessories, which are sold in fifty countries worldwide.

From Louis XIV, a shoe aficionado of the Baroque Age, to the latest club-hopping progeny of the British royalty, this colorful survey of aristocratic fashion through the ages will delight royal watchers of every generation.

The wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton helped reclaim the fashion credibility of Britain’s royal family, ushering in a generation of hip but genial personalities that appeal to every age and station. But royals have been setting fashion trends for centuries. This fascinating overview of aristocratic icons reaches back to the middle age, and from Europe to the Middle East, to profile the most renowned promoters of elegance and style ever to don their empires’ crowns. Author and royals watcher Luise Wackerl juxtaposes the fifteenth-century Duke of Burgundy’s penchant for black with Elizabeth I’s taste for virginal white. She presents history’s first “It Girls”: Marie Antoinette, Louisa of Prussia, Empresses Sisi of Austria and Eugenie of France. She relates how Queen Victoria’s sorrow and propriety transformed her country, and how an impeccably styled American’s love for Edward VIII upended the British monarchy. From the irreproachably elegant styles of Grace Kelly to Lady Diana, Jordan’s Queen Rania to Princess Letizia of Spain we move on to the newest icons, the Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie of York, whose faces and party antics grace the tabloids on a weekly basis.

Hundreds of photos and a lively text make this irresistible reading for anyone interested in fashion, royalty, and the lively intersection of both worlds.

Over 200 colour photographs of clothing and accessories, covering both traditional Russian dress and urban dress
Illuminating discussions of the place of dress in Russian society by experts in the field

This beautifully illustrated book shows examples of Russian dress and accessories from the 15th to the early 20th century. Derived from the collection of the State Historical Museum and covering both dresses worn in the countryside and in the city, this book is a fabulous feast of splendid patterns and fine detail. From exuberantly colourful and embellished dresses to elegantly sumptuous brocades and silks, the garments and accessories included in this book are an inspiration.

In the first part of the book, we look at traditional Russian dress, which was worn by all Russian peasants, by the urban petit bourgeoisie and by merchants. This type of clothing became accepted as a national dress. In the towns and cities, the dress was influenced by the Parisian styles but interpreted by Russian seamstresses reflecting the love of bright colours, multi-coloured patterns and decorative features in evidence in traditional dress.

With authoritative essays written by experts L. Yefimova and T. Aleshina, Russian Elegance is an invaluable resource for fashion designers, artists, fashion historians, set and costume designers, or anyone interested in these beautiful designs.

Designed in close collaboration with Coddington, Saving Grace: My Fashion Archive 1968–2016 is both a retrospective and a luxury object

The elegant clamshell box features a bespoke pattern of silkscreened drawings and painted gold trim. Enclosed within are both volumes of Coddington’s collected works, Grace: Thirty Years of Fashion at Vogue and Grace: The American Vogue Years. Together, the books feature more than 600 images, including Coddington’s most beloved fashion stories as well as behind-the-scenes and never-before-seen photographs by the world’s most important photographers including Steven Meisel, Annie Leibovitz, Mario Testino, Herb Ritts, Helmut Newton, Irving Penn, and Patrick Demarchelier.

About the author

Grace Coddington’s extraordinary talent and fierce dedication to her work as creative director of Vogue have made her an international icon. Known through much of her career only to those who work behind the scenes, she might have remained fashion’s best-kept secret were it not for The September Issue, the 2009 documentary by R. J. Cutler that turned Grace into a sudden celebrity.

The daughter of an hotelier in Wales, as a teenager Grace won a modeling competition and moved to London. She enjoyed a lucrative career as one of London’s leading models on the 1960s scene. In 1968, following a car accident, she became a fashion editor at British Vogue. She quickly established herself as a master stylist and creative director for fashion photography, whether she was transforming studio portraiture into beguiling tableaux, reinterpreting fashion photography classics, or introducing a sweeping narrative style--storytelling with clothing that is the hallmark of Grace's work.

Although separated by time, Miuccia Prada and Elsa Schiaparelli-both Italian, both feminists-share striking affinities in terms of their design strategies and fashion manifestoes.

Presented as an intimate "conversation," Schiaparelli and Prada: Impossible Conversations aims to tease out formal and conceptual similarities between the two designers. Striking photographs and insightful texts illustrate the parallels between the two, including their preferences for interesting textiles and prints, eccentric color palettes, and a bold and playful approach to styling and accessories.

Schiaparelli, in the 1920s through 50s, and Prada, from the late 1980s to today, exploited the narrative possibilities of prints, sought out unconventional textiles, played with ideas of good and bad taste, and manipulated scale for surrealistic outcomes. Contemporary art plays a major role in the work of these inventive women-Schiaparelli in her famous collaborations with Dali and Cocteau, and Prada via her Fondazione Prada.

Blending the historic with the contemporary, the catalogue brings the masterworks of both designers together into a grand conversation between the most important women fashion designers to ever emerge from Italy.

This sumptuously illustrated book reveals the decorative seams, exquisite stitching, voluptuous drapery, strict corseting and slashing and stamping that make up the clothing in the V&A’s superlative seventeeth- and eighteenth-century fashion collection. Using an authoritative text, exquisite colour photography and line drawings of complete garments, the reader is allowed the unique opportunity to look closely at clothing, often too fragile to be on display.

Part of the V&A Fashion in Detail series, Seventeenth and Eighteenth-Century Fashion in Detail is an inspirational resource for students, designers, collectors and all followers of fashion.
