o over the past 2 years I started reading and
collecting some of the most influential, powerful and significant Fashion books,
for me investing in a book to know more about the designers is more important in investing to get the latest collection shirt or shoes , well I don’t usually read much of
books but when It holds the story of one of my favourite designers covering
almost everything in their lives I can’t
control myself until I finish every single page. And below I posted some of the
books I collected (not much I have 5 books until now) with a brief explanation
of the content. And last week I was glad to add one of the books I always
wanted to have since it was out the 6oth anniversary
Dior Book I’m still in the first few pages but what I can tell it’s
just amazing!!

On the occasion of its 60th anniversary,
the House of Dior presents a monumental recounting of its history,
imparted through its exceptional legacy: 150 of its most beautiful dresses.
This magnificent 400-page book unveils beautiful Haute Couture dresses,
captured with original photography and unique, insightful text which serve to
annotate the influence of Chrisitan
Dior and his
successors, Yves
Saint Laurent, Marc Bohan, Gianfranco Ferré, and John Galliano. The book also includes press reviews and
photographs of celebrity models, from Suzy Parker to Kate Moss, each immortalized in Dior
attire by renowned fashion photographers like Irving Penn, Richard Avedon, and Nick Knight.
