Fashion is the most immediate and intimate form of self-expression.
Faster than anything else, what we wear tells the story of who we
are - or who we want to be. Yet even as fashion touches the lives
of each and every one of us, it can seem mysterious. Who better to
guide readers into the dizzying world of fashion than Frances
Corner, Head of London College of Fashion and a leading expert on
this rapidly expanding, increasingly global, always exciting
industry? In 101 provocative entries Corner teases out the glorious
intricacies and contradictions of an industry that simultaneously
values technology and craft, timeless style and fast fashion, the
bespoke and the mass-market, consumption and sustainability,
cold-hard numbers and creative expression. From `Karl Lagerfeld and
High-Tech Fur' to `The White Shirt' to `The One Trillion Dollar
Business', each entry offers a unique avenue into fashion and its
impact, both positive and negative, on lives around the globe.
Accessible, instructive and hugely enjoyable, this book will be
essential reading for anyone involved in fashion, business,
education and beyond.
