I colori della moda

Elegantly illustrated and with a simple, flowing style, the book tells the story of fashion through ten shades (black, purple, blue, green, yellow, orange, brown, red, pink, white).

The history of fashion is punctuated by great revolutions (the modern practicality of the dresses designed by Coco Chanel, Mary Quant’s daring invention of the miniskirt…), iconic clothes and unforgettable fashion shows. From Valentino’s red gowns to Chanel’s little black dress, from Elsa Schiaparelli’s pink to Hermès’ orange, color is undoubtedly a key element of style. Brilliant and comprehensive, this richly illustrated volume will take you through ten iconic hues to discover the key moments that have marked fashion history.
