Overview

Hailed by Vogue as 'the fashion bible' and by Elle as 'the ultimate fashion reference book', The Fashion Book takes a fresh look at the fashion world and the people who created it. Now available in a pocket-sized mini format, this inspirational reference work covers the whole industry – from pioneering designers, including Coco Chanel and Issey Miyake, to influential photographers such as Richard Avedon and Helmut Newton and the people they photographed. Easy to use and filled with beautiful and memorable images, it is an A to Z guide to 500 key individuals – clothes and accessory designers, photographers, models and those iconic celebrities who instigated or symbolize a whole fashion movement. It cuts through the usual classifications and creates juxtapositions that make fascinating and unlikely partnerships. Each entry is illustrated with a photograph or drawing which shows a quintessential aspect of their work or style. An accompanying text describes where they fit into the fashion story andincludes essential biographical information. In addition, a comprehensive cross-referencing system and glossary help to explain the many collaborations and techniques used in the fashion business. Exceptional value for money, this handy new mini edition is a must for all followers of fashion.

Editorial Reviews

New York Magazine
When the folks who brought us The Art Book, an alphabetical catalogue of new and old masters, came up with The Fashion Book, an alphabetical catalogue of new and old fashion fixtures, the thread set was thrilled...this week a clever pocket version really a photographic crib sheet on designers, shoe gurus, models, and even unwitting fashion icons makes its debut.

    Unexpected disappointment

    This is not one of the distinguished books on fashion. The brief descriptions are based more on the picture itself than the actual fashion icon listed on the pages. Several people are not included most notably Kevyn Aucoin. Who is one of the greatest make up artist of all time. He was a forbearer in creating makeup lines for women of all skin types. It was such a disappointment to see him omitted. If he is not one of the most influential icons of the fashion world than who is?

    With fashion this beautiful, you need the hardcover

    It goes without saying that anything published by Phaidon is not only high-quality, but thoroughly researched and innovative as well. The Fashion Book is no exception, featuring beautiful photographs of fashion icons from all recent eras of the industry. The histories behind some of these names can be surprising, or at the very least insightful as to the aesthetic philosophies which have penetrated and endured in fashion. There is also so much depth, as to the quantity of personages and variety of styles featured, that anyone who comes across the book is bound to find at least a few things that are fascinating to him or her, regardless of their love of clothing.

    The book surprisingly misses one or two of today's top designers, however, a little perplexing especially when these people ARE referenced in the book, in the synopses of other designers, but not given their own vignettes and photographs as they are due. Nevertheless, The Fashion Book achieves a level of quality and beauty that sets it comfortably among Phaidon's marvelous selection of publications.

    Last detail - the paperback "Mini Edtion" really is miniature, and anyone who has a chance to see the full-size hardcover edition may not be satisfied having these brightly hued, perfectly framed photographs reduced to just a few inches. Unless you're swimming in a mess at home, or have a natural affinity to all things miniaturized, go ahead and get the hardcover.
