Hardcover. Zustand: new. Hardcover. Elsa Schiaparelli sent shockwaves through the fashion establishment with her witty, ingenious and provocativedesigns. Lauded by Cristobal Balenciaga as the only real artist in couture she infused her collections with Surrealist influences, and collaborated on pieces with art-world contemporaries including Man Ray, Jean Cocteau, Salvador Dali and Alberto Giacometti. She caused a stir at Wimbledon by sending Lili Alvarez to the 1931 tennis tournament in culottes; she clothed Amy Johnson for her first solo flight to Cape Town; and her lobster dress made it into Wallis Simpsons trousseau.Today, Elsas visual vocabulary runs through Daniel Roseberrys designs for maison Schiaparelli like a shocking pink thread. This lavishly illustrated book explores the origins and legacy of one of fashions greatest innovators. Shocking Life is a lively, idiosyncratic and fascinating account of the life and career of Elsa Schiaparelli in her own, inimitable voice.

Recognized for her unique creative vision, which combined a love of art and mysticism with ingenious design talent and wit, her collaborations with Surrealist artists, affluent and famous clientele, and innovative - yet wearable - designs set 'Schiap' apart from her contemporaries.?

This deluxe edition, illustrated with a selection of some of her most iconic designs, takes us from her somewhat conventional childhood in Rome, where she was surrounded by academics and aristocrats, through the establishment of her couture house during the turbulence of the 1920s, on to her dominance of 1930s fashion, and the fate of her house during World War Two.
