Where, under one roof, can shoppers find Chanel, Yves Saint
Laurent, Prada, Vivienne Westwood and Alexander McQueen? And where,
besides the great department stores of Europe, Japan and America,
is it possible for shoppers to spend the day in an extraordinarily
opulent setting, drifting from shoes to cosmetics with a stop for a
light lunch on the seventh floor and a visit to the bookstore,
florist or hairdresser? This is the first illustrated book on
department stores, with photographs and ephemera collected from all
over the world. Born in the Gilded Age in France, the department
store grew up thanks to the Industrial Revolution, the rise of the
middle classes, and the invention of steel-frame architecture and
the elevator. This lavish book goes behind the fabulous window
displays, eye-catching shopping bags and instore extravaganzas
promoting everything from shoes to perfumes to the latest fashion
sensation to reveal and celebrate the department store in richness
and detail.
