Entering fashion history in 1993 with his notorious 'grunge' collection for Perry Ellis, Marc Jacobs would soon be hailed by American Vogue as 'the dauphin of grungy, understated cool'. He quickly rose to become one of the most influential designers of his generation, both at the helm of his own label and as creative director of Louis Vuitton from 1998 to 2014. Known for his collaborations with prominent artists, musicians and muses - from Stephen Sprouse to Sonic Youth, Debbie Harry, Sofia Coppola and Chloë Sevigny, Marc Jacobs 'changed what it means to be a fashion designer, just as once upon a time Andy Warhol changed what it meant to be an artist', according to fashion historian Valerie Steele. Opening with an essay on the designer's work, Marc Jacobs: Unseen unfolds chronologically, revisiting the designer's most iconic creations and revealing previously unseen behind-the-scenes moments of models, hairdressers, stylists, make-up artists and Marc Jacobs himself at their most creative. Robert Fairer's stunning and highenergy photographs capture the youth, glamour and spirit that defined Jacobs's shows

2019ill., ril. lusso Si tratta del primo volume di una serie di 5 (gli altri titoli in programma sono "Il gilet, il bustino, l'abitino", "Il pantalone", "La camicia, la camicetta", "Il capospalla") tesa a introdurre il metodo verticale sul mercato tecnico-professionale della moda femminile quale via più efficace per raggiungere la perfezione nell'esercizio della funzione di fashion designer. In particolare, "Il metodo verticale" esprime il suo modo di essere nel voler approfondire l'argomento senza 'rimandare', cercando di entrare nel vivo dell'oggetto stesso. Pertanto, questo innovativo metodo obbliga lo studente a percorrere tutte le tappe passando per più figure professionali.
2019ill., ril. Deanna Farneti Cera è avvincente nel condurci attraverso la storia dei gioielli non preziosi che dalla metà del XVIII secolo all'ultima decade del XX hanno caratterizzato la storia del costume, la sua evoluzione e le trasformazioni dei gusti femminili. I "gioielli per tutti i giorni" riflettono in maniera sorprendente lo stile della donna che li indossa, come dimostra questo volume riccamente illustrato. Dalle romantiche creazioni vittoriane, si passa agli strass e alle decorazioni argentee di epoca edoardiana per arrivare agli elementi in plastica, che spesso davano un tocco di colore agli abiti neri dell'epoca del Charlestone. Linee nette, colori contrastati e astrazione distinguono il Déco prima che lo stile leggendario di Coco Chanel negli anni Trenta e le creazioni di Christian Dior nei Cinquanta esaltassero il ruolo del bijoux nella moda, Le rivoluzioni degli anni Sessanta portano all'utilizzo di materiali innovativi e colori fluorescenti a cui seguirà la rivisitazione del passato tipica dei Settanta. Gli anni Ottanta, infine, danno voce a realizzazioni di grande creatività e successo quali quelle di Ugo Correani per Versace e Karl Lagerfeld per Chanel.
