Who's Who In Fashion

This beautifully illustrated text captures the energy drama, and excitement of the luminaries who make up the world of fashion. Alphabetical biographies of over 300 major designers, illustrators, photographers, and fashion editors include information on their clothes categories, design influences and philosophy, target markets, and additional creative works, as well as their successes and failures. In an introductory essay, "Fashion--"All About Change," the author discusses the concept of fashion designers and their relationship to the history of 20th century fashion, beginning with the earliest designers and concluding with today's designers and where the business of fashion is going.
