The 50 Greatest Fashion Designers
Emma Baxter-Wright
Fashion writer Emma Baxter-Wright introduces 50 of the world's most influential fashion designers and a selection of their most celebrated pieces.
Starting with the foundation of the 19th century House of Worth, perhaps the first real fashion house, through the designs of the hugely influential Coco Chanel, Christian Dior and Yves St Laurent, to Japanese designers such as Rei Kawakubo and Issey Miyake whose designs 'deconstructed' fashion in the 1980s and 1990s and the emerging stars of the present day, this book is a fascinating history of how fashion has developed over the past 160 years.
