Book from New MagsLittle Book of Schiaparelli
The Little Book of Schiaparelli tells the story of one of history's most influential and eccentric tailors. Elsa Schiaparelli was endowed with an unusually imaginative and experimental approach to fashion, cultivating a combination of the witty and the surreal, the groundbreaking and the elegant, from her garments and jewellery to her collaborations with Salvador Dalí, Jean Cocteau and Alberto Giacometti.
Beautifully illustrated and expertly written, the book follows a biographical chronology describing her life, career and the main creative themes of her work. Images of Schiaparelli's finished designs as well as close-ups and illustrations of her personal sketches show the genius of her innovative work and the legacy that lives on in the House of Schiaparelli today.
