The laws of fashion
An agile manual to navigate the fascinating and complex world of fashion and its laws.
Haute couture, blogs, boutiques, brands, models, prêt-à-porter, perfumes, shopping, fashion shows, vintage: ten words from the world of fashion entered the daily lexicon and an unprecedented point of view to explain their meaning.
A book that finally talks about fashion, and its background, in a different way: by assembling the theme of copyright in fashion with the suggestions deriving from its history, from the biographies of the great stylists, from the history of art, from the relationships between art and fashion and between architecture, design and fashion, and from the most recent news on the fashion scene. Easy to consult, punctual, brilliant, full of anecdotes, data, reflections and useful information, the text helps the reader to look at fashion with new eyes.
Without forgetting the tips for fashionistas (elegantly hidden between the lines); and a handbook dedicated to those who work in the fashion world, or intend to work there.
In other words: fashion as no one has ever told you about it before. For use and consumption by all fashion addicts. Or aspiring ones.
