Publisher's Synopsis
Sartorialists rejoice! Passion For Fashion is an obsessive but lighthearted celebration of the glamorous, romantic, and sometimes shocking world of fashion: the clothes, the designers, the lingo, the history, the sheer exuberant style. On every page is a delightful tidbit presented with humor and irreverence. Here are the icons: Coco Chanel, Yves St. Laurent, Calvin Klein. And objects of desire: Hermes' Kelly Bag, Manolo's stilettos, and Audrey Hepburn's Little Black Dress. Plus wit and wisdom from the industry's stars: "When in doubt, wear red" (Bill Blass). Written by fashion magazine veterans Rory Evans and Jennifer Tung, and with photos and illustrations throughout, it's a year-long romp through the delights of fashion.
