In den WarenkorbFirst Edition. Original trend report on American knitwear for fall 1977, featuring fashion sketches on every page, each captioned with the name of the manufacturer, the wool content, and the retail price. Featured designers of these ready-to-wear styles include Donna Karan (for Anne Klein), Gloria Vanderbilt, and Kay Unger. Also… represented are the mass-market "sport" lines of Givenchy and Pierre Cardin. The Good Wools was issued by The Wool Bureau, the American branch of the International Wool Secretariat. The IWS shaped global fashion trends for decades through forecasting reports like this one, and through the International Woolmark Prize, which launched the careers of designers Yves Saint Laurent and Karl Lagerfeld. In 1997, the IWS would rebrand as The Woolmark Company, keeping their iconic logo, the stylized skein of yarn used throughout The Good Wools to signify 100% wool content. Provenance: Ellen Robinson, uncredited designer of the tweed separates created for a New Division of Alex Colman (page 81). A near-fine copy. Spiral-bound volume, measuring 10 x 5.25 inches: [8], 170. Original color photographic wrappers. Text printed on tan paper with brown card chapter dividers, line drawings on every page.
