Книга Chanel: The Making of a Collection

Аннотация к книге "Chanel: The Making of a Collection"

A gorgeously illustrated exploration of the history, culture, and design process of the famed fashion house Chanel




Chanel: The Making of a Collection traces the design process of
the world-renowned fashion house, revealing how a collection is
created. Moving from the studio to the fashion show, fashion writer
Laetitia Ce nac has unprecedented access to explore a world that is
usually carefully guarded from the public eye. With hundreds of
beautifully rendered fashion illustrations from acclaimed artist
Jean-Philippe Delhomme, Karl Lagerfeld's approach to design is brought
to life, as are the talents of the masterfully skilled artisans-the
embroiderers, flower makers, shoemakers, hat makers, and more-who
specialize in everything from buttons and leather to lace, silk, and
cashmere. Delving into the history and culture of the brand, while also
detailing contemporary collections, Chanel: The Making of a Collection is a richly visual insider's look at the enduring creative legacy of this haute couture icon.
