Vogue on Hubert De Givenchy Издательство: Quadrille Publishing Ltd Жанр: Quadrille Publishing Ltd Качество: Хорошее Страниц: 160 Формат: pdf, fb2, epub Vogue on Designers is a new series of fashion books from British Vogue which tell the fascinating stories of iconic designers accompanied by world-class photographs and illustrations from the Vogue archive. The fashions of handsome, aristocratic Hubert de Givenchy combined the traditions of haute couture — creative, luxurious and perfectionist — with a modern entrepreneurial sensibility. In a career spanning forty years he created the most glamorous of evening dresses, developed the influential 'sack' dress, pioneered the princess silhouette and fielded debonair daytime suits that have never gone out of fashion. He famously defined the sartorial image of Audrey Hepburn — both on screen and off — creating the Sabrina neckline and the little black dress for Breakfast at Tiffany's. A history of chic caught by leading photographers and illustrators, Vogue on Givenchy reveals what the magazine called his 'stardust touch'. British Vogue has charted the careers of designers through the decades. Its unique archive of photographs, taken by the leading photographers of the day from Cecil Beaton to Mario Testino, and original illustrations, together with its stable of highly respected fashion writers, make British Vogue the most authoritative and prestigious source of reference on fashion. With a circulation of over 160,000 and a readership of over 1,400,000, no brand is better positioned to present a library on the great fashion designers of the modern age.
