The Fashion Book by Phaidon
This is an A to Z guide to 500 clothes and accessory designers, photgraphers, models and those iconic individuals who instigated or symbolize a whole fashion movement.
It cuts through the usual classifications and creates juxtapositions that make fascinating and unlikely partnerships: Rene Lacoste sits opposite Christin Lacroix while Kate Moss rubs shoulders with Thierry Mugler.
This is truly an ispirational gift to treasure for those appreciate the finer things in life.
