Die überraschenden Ursprünge der Männergarderobe - zeitlos und rebellisch. Wie wurde die Jeans, wie das weiße T-Shirt zum Klassiker? Welcher Filmstar hat die Lederjacke weltweit zur Ikone gemacht ? Und wurden Chinos wirklich für das Militär erdacht ? Manch klassisches Kleidungsstück hat eine durchaus bewegte Geschichte und nicht selten beginnt sie als Arbeitskleidung, auf See, beim Miltär oder in der Luftfahrt. The Rebel's Wardrobe erzählt, wie sich Skater eine ursprünglich für Eisenbahnarbeiter entworfene Jacke angeeignet haben, oder wieso ein Tennishemd zur Uniform der britischen Mods wurde. Kenntnisreich und unterhaltsam blickt dieses Buch zurück auf die rebellische Jugend heutiger Kleidungsstücke und erzählt in Geschichten und Bildern, was sie zu zeitlosen Klassikern machte.

Brilliant, funny, charming, imperious, Diana Vreeland?the fashion editor of Harper's Bazaar and editor-in-chief of Vogue?was a woman whose passion and genius for style helped define the world of high fashion for fifty years. Among her eclectic circle of friends were some of the most renowned and famous figures of the twentieth century?artists and princes, movie stars and international legends, including Chanel, the Duke and Duchess of Windsor, Isak Dinesen, Clark Gable, and Swifty Lazar.Moving from English palaces to the nightclubs of 1930s Paris, the wilds of Wyoming to the exclusive venues of New York high society, D.V. takes readers into this iconic woman's dazzling life, evoking the luxury and brio of an era that encompassed Josephine Baker, England's Queen Mary, Buffalo Bill, and Diaghilev.Vibrant with the vivid, irresistible voice that elevated every tête-à-tête and dinner party, D.V. brings this renowned and uninhibited raconteur alive, whether recalling herself as a young girl, her search for the perfect red, her piquant observations about her world, or her abhorrence for nostalgia. Like her legacy, Vreeland's story, told in her own words, is a classic to be celebrated by both loyal admirers and a new generation of culture mavens and style savants.

Seit sie in den späten 70er-Jahren zur Fotografie fand, hat Bettina Rheims gängige Erwartungshaltungen torpediert. Von ihrer Serie über die Stripperinnen vom Pigalle (1980) bis zum Zyklus über das Leben Jesu in I.N.R.I. (1998), von ihrer Chanel-Werbung bis hin zu Gender Studies (2011): In ihrer Arbeit hat sie die traditionelle Ikonografie gehörig durchgerüttelt und unermüdlich die Bruchstelle zwischen zwei Gebieten ausgelotet, die die Menschen seit jeher faszinieren - die Schönheit und die Unvollkommenheit. Für diesen Band hat Rheims über 300 ihrer Lieblingsaufnahmen aus den letzten 35 Jahren zusammengestellt - couragierte und provokante Fotografie aus berühmten Fotoreihen wie Chambre close, Héroïnes und Rose, c'est Paris (in Zusammenarbeit mit Serge Bramly). Die Modefotografien wie auch die künstlerischen Aufnahmen in diesem Buch zeigen Bettina Rheims' besonderen Blick für die Fragilität und die Stärke der Frauen. Die magische Begegnung zwischen der Künstlerin und ihren Modellen bricht mit den traditionellen Codes der Erotik und führt zu einer ganz neuen Bildsprache der Weiblichkeit.

"An Endless Thread serves as a long-overdue celebration of Grant, who has long advocated for the intersection of cultural pride, style, and a maintaining of tradition.”—VoguePart look-book, part memoir, and part history, this beautifully illustrated monument to a singular designer who helped inspire the growing Indigenous fashion movement is also a powerful demonstration of the enduring resonance and possibilities of Haida art.Inspired by a discussion with celebrated Haida artist Bill Reid, Haida designer Dorothy Grant made it her life’s mission to bring her culture’s traditional art into contemporary fashion while adhering to the principle of Yaguudang, or respect for oneself and others. The 1989 launch of her Feastwear collection, featuring modern silhouettes hand-appliquéd with Northwest Coast formline, immediately established her at the forefront of Indigenous fashion in North America, and she has since hosted runway shows and trunk sales from Paris to Vancouver to Tokyo. Her clients include Indigenous leaders, national politicians, and global celebrities, and her garments can be found in museums and galleries around the world, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art.Dorothy Grant: An Endless Thread is the first monograph to celebrate her trailblazing career. It features new photography of dozens of garments spanning the past four decades, modeled in studio and natural settings in Vancouver and Haida Gwaii, alongside sketches, traditional button robes and spruce-root weaving, and personal stories and reflections from Grant. Essays by Haida repatriation specialist and museologist Sdahl Ḵ’awaas Lucy Bell and curator India Rael Young place Grant in the long continuum of Haida fashion and trace the many innovations and accomplishments of her journey, and Haida curator and artist Kwiaahwah Jones, a longtime assistant to Grant, shares behind-the-scenes insights and memories. An associated exhibition, Dorothy Grant: Raven Comes Full Circle, opens at Haida Gwaii Museum in July 2024.

"A sweeping biography of one of the most influential and successful business-women in American history, BECOMING ELIZABETH ARDEN opens the Red Door to a world of wealth, glamor, and the profitable business of beauty Elizabeth Arden was a household name on six continents and a millionaire several times over before her death in 1966. Arden counted British royalty and social elites from the overlapping worlds of New York, Hollywood, London, and Paris among her clients. She revolutionized skin care and cosmetics, making it acceptable for all women to embrace glamour and wear makeup-not just actresses and prostitutes. She created a successful international business empire before women gained the vote and at a time when virtually no woman owned or ran a national company. She developed the first luxury spa and insisted on a holistic understanding of health and beauty. Unconventional and driven, Arden fervently believed that every woman could be beautiful. Acclaimed biographer Stacy Cordery does full justice to one of America's greatest entrepreneurs. Canadian-born Florence Nightingale Graham turned herself into Elizabeth Arden, using her uncanny sense of the possible to take full advantage of everything New York City offered, building her company and becoming one with her brand. In an astounding rags-to-riches tale, Elizabeth Arden came to personify sophistication and refinement. Her hard work and innovation made makeup, fitness, and style not only acceptable but de rigueur. Arden prospered throughout the Depression, reimagined women's needs during two World Wars, and by pioneering new approaches to marketing and advertising, ushered beauty into the modern era. Cordery delivers a compelling picture of a modern CEO whose career provides a model for aspiring businesses to this day"--

A sequel to the author’s critically acclaimed Delphinium title, One of These Things First, The Greta Garbo Home for Wayward Boys and Girls is a poison-pen, love letter to the end of an era—Manhattan during the decadent, late 1970s. Picking up where he left off at the end of his widely praised debut memoir, One of These Things First, Gaines recounts his hilarious, sometimes poignant attempt to forge a writing career and a successful love life in the gay world of the 1970s. He has limited success until he falls in love with an older woman dying of cancer. Meanwhile, he serendipitously begins a career as a writer when he meets a former child evangelist, and with naïve chutzpah, manages to land a book deal that leads to a whirlwind career as a biographer, rock and roll columnist, and roman à clef novelist who writes a book with a Studio 54 bartender that brings the world down around them. From inside the entertainment business in New York and L.A. to inside the publishing world, Gaines narrates a life of escapades and adventures and searching for love in all the wrong places. After hitting rock bottom, he writes a book about the Beatles that ends up on the New York Times bestseller list, leading to popular esteem and a feeling of momentary redemption.

Eigentlich suchte der Australier Simon "Woody" Wood 2002 nur eine Möglichkeit, kostenlos an Turnschuhe zu kommen. Zwei Wochen später war er der stolze Verleger von Sneaker Freaker - und musste nie mehr barfuß gehen. Von seinen frühesten Ursprüngen als Fanzine im Punkstil bis zur heutigen Hochglanzaufmachung mit Onlineausgabe hat diese entschlossen unabhängige Zeitschrift jeden Collab-, Quickstrike-, Hyperstrike- und Tier-Zero-Sneaker, jede limitierte Ausgabe, Neuauflage und hippe Innovation der letzten 20 Jahre dokumentiert, vom klassischen adidas-Treter bis zum ultraluxuriösen Edelsneaker . Magische Produktbeschreibungen wie "Das Suede an Zunge und Ferse ist so dunkel und geheimnisvoll wie der Blick in einen bodenlosen Abgrund. Das Mintnubuk ist reines Dynamit, das graue Leder der Funke und die robuste Mesh-Toebox das Ausrufezeichen. Peng!" lassen erahnen, wie die Synapsen im Sneakerversum so geschnürt sind. Woodys ursprüngliche Vorgabe, dass Sneaker Freaker "zugleich lustig und ernst, sinnvoll und zweckfrei" sein solle, erfüllt The Ultimate Sneaker Book auf vorbildliche Weise : Auf über 500 mit Insiderwissen gespickten Seiten , die keine wahnwitzigen historischen Details auslassen und zahllose Fandevotionalien schnittig ins Bild setzen, werden hier Geschichte, Gegenwart und Zukunft von Footwear aus aller Welt dokumentiert, in Sneaker-Lingo kommentiert und mitgestaltet . Neben einem souveränen Marsch durch die Turnschuhgeschichte werden der Nike Air Max und Air Force, Adi Dassler, Converse, Dapper Dan, Dee Brown, und Michael Jordan - neben obskuren Schätzchen wie Troop, Airwalk und Vision Street Wear - ausführlich verhandelt. Dieser Band ist das definitive Nachschlagewerk für Sneakerheads, visuelles Manna und ein orgiastisch sprudelnder Quell des Treterwissens, kurz ... das Ultimate Sneaker Book !

The first monograph of a rising star in the world of fashion photography and film, this dazzling volume is filled with lusciously colored images that capture Moses' eye for beauty and talent for storytelling. Gabriel Moses was only eighteen when he received his first commission-from Nike. Since then the self-taught British Nigerian photographer has been in enormous demand, with clients that range from Louis Vuitton and Burberry to Chanel and Vogue, and from stars such as Pharrell Williams, A$AP Rocky, and Skepta. Gorgeous full page reproductions capture Moses' uniquely atmospheric vibe-marked by deep colors, rich textures-as well as his startling ease with his subject, be it music, fashion, or sports. A series of essays include a foreword by Moses, touching on his own ideology and practice; Federico Sargentone's insightful exploration of Moses' work; contributions and personal accounts by Matthew Williams, Ciesay, Clint, Samuel Ross and Slawn, among others; and a series of in-conversations, one with Skepta discussing the totality of life; and the second with Nick Knight exploring the depths of photography. Touching on every aspect of his work to date, including a number of previously unpublished images, this stunning and contemporary feeling monograph, designed by Hassan Rahim, dives deep into Moses' visual language and highlights his profound connection to family, community, and the culture around it.
