Über diesen Titel

Contraportada:

This fully illustrated A to Z of everything you always wanted to know about the world of fashion ranges from Afros, anorexia and Africa to witches, waifs and wet look via Naomi Campbell, John Galliano and Calvin Klein.

Behind-the-scenes looks at contemporary designers and models are combined with insightful accounts of past masters and mistresses of fashion. Find out the facts about careers in modelling and fashion design; discover the fictions behind beauty industry claims and marketing ploys; share in the fairytales surrounding the human desire to be noticed.

‘Caryn Franklin at her irreverent and impish best. Never one to judge a book by its cover, or, indeed, a supermodel by her slingbacks, Franklin peels away the paint and polish to focus on what really matters. A book for people with a passion for fashion.’
IAIN R. WEBB, 'The Times', British Fashion Journalist of the Year

‘Puts the wonderful world of fashion into a historical and political context, without ignoring all the riveting gossip we pretend not to like.’
SARAH WALTER, 'Marie Claire'

‘A unique insider's glimpse into the workings of a fascinating industry. This is s bible for any women who cares about the world of exteriors as well as what lies behind the glittery facade. Enjoy.’
KATHRYN FLETT FLANAGAN, 'The Observer'
