, Harper, 2016 Hardcover, 280 pages, 10.63 x 1.18 x 12.6 inches, English text. New . ISBN 9780062215994.
With more than 175 color high-fashion photographs, this stunning, comprehensive, and authoritative handbook on modern French couture, covering the finest Parisian houses of couture?including Chanel, Dior, Balenciaga, Yves Saint Laurent, Lanvin, and more?and the creative directors who are redefining their legacies for the twenty-first century. While trends emerge from New York, London, and Tokyo, the fashion capital of the world remains the City of Light. From Coco Chanel to Karl Lagerfeld, Christian Dior to Raf Simons, Hubert de Givenchy to Riccardo Tisci, the evolutionary arc of French fashion and its most revered houses grows richer with each season and with a continuous infusion of imaginative new talent. The New French Couture identifies the fashion leaders whose longstanding ateliers have endured, and the creative pioneers who continue to reinvent and reinterpret their signature iconography, including Karl Lagerfeld at Chanel, Raf Simons at Christian Dior, Riccardo Tisci at Givenchy, Alber Elbaz at Lanvin, Alexander Wang at Balenciaga, and Hedi Slimane at Saint Laurent. Though haute couture remains the exclusive domain of a few houses, the Parisian fashion panorama is rife with gifted luxury establishments who specialize in hand-craftsmanship, exquisite design, precious materials, impeccable production, and a celebrity clientele. The New French Couture provides a dazzling tour through the advertising, editorial, runway, and behind-the-scenes lives of these exclusive ateliers, revealing the evolution of each brand, their definitive looks, and fashion ?moments.? Here, too, are profiles of those who have made Paris their home, reimagining contemporary French luxury more independently of the fashion conglomerates, such as Hussein Chalayan, Jean Paul Gaultier, Azzedine Ala a, and Phoebe Philo for C line. Breathtaking in scope and vision, beautiful, sophisticated, and informative, The New French Couture provides a comprehensive glimpse at the breadth of the Paris?s impressive and abiding fashion authority.

THE LITTLE BOOK OF CHANEL BY LAGERFELD
, Welbeck, 2022 Hardcover , ENG, 185 x 130 mm, NEW, illustrated in colour. ISBN 9781802790160.
The House of Chanel is synonymous with not one, but two, iconic designers. First there was Gabrielle, and then there was Karl. Chanel is a house known for its signatures that not only changed the course of fashion history but still resonate today - the Little Black Dress, the tweed suit, costume jewellery, Chanel No5. These signatures were inspired by Gabrielle Chanel's taste, life experience and travels - but it was Karl Lagerfeld who took these signatures and ingeniously adapted them for the twenty-first century woman. From his first days at the helm of Chanel in the 1980s, to his creative application of the Chanel logo to everything from biker boots to a space rocket, King Karl's reign at Chanel is nothing if not legendary. Little Book of Chanel by Lagerfeld covers his most exquisite pieces, breathtaking catwalk shows and constant reinvention that have maintained Chanel as the most illustrious couture house in the world. Written by the bestselling author of Little Book of Chanel, this beautifully illustrated book is the essential guide to Lagerfeld's tenure at Chanel.

Images of Schiaparelli's finished designs, along with close-up details and illustrations of her personal sketches, showcase the brilliance of her innovative oeuvre, and the legacy that lives on in the House of Schiaparelli to this day.

Going on to found his own fashion house in 1961, Saint Laurent created his famous 'le smoking' trouser suit, brought the leather jacket to the mainstream and astounded the fashion world with his blend of elegance and artistic drama.

Feast in the House of Simon : Veronese : History and Restoration of a Masterpiece
, Alain de Gourcuff, 1998 Hardcover, 172 pages, ENG, 245 x 215 x 18 mm, in very good condition, illustrated in colour /b/w. ISBN 9782909838267.
Painted for the refectory of the convent of Santa Maria dei Servi in 1570-3, The Feast in the House of Simon was presented to Louis XIV by the Most Serene Republic of Venice in 1664, as a token of friendship between the two states. But it was not until 1730, during the reign of Louis XV, that this great masterpiece was to find a setting worthy of it in the Salon d'Hercule at Versailles, for which Francois Le Moyne painted a ceiling decoration a l'italienne, unique in France, using a light, luminous and sensual palette in an explicit tribute to Venetian painting.Despite a major restoration in 1948 and two later superficial cleanings, the painting was obscured, notably by thick varnishes, and required a radical intervention. This process, started in 1994 and finished this year, was carried out by the Service de restauration des musees de France with the scientific assistance of the Laboratoire de recherche. Seventeen experts have contributed essays documenting the "resurrection" of this masterpiece by Veronese.
