A landmark survey of the work of Isaac Mizrahi, a trailblazing and
influential American fashion designer, artist, and entrepreneur
Beginning with Isaac Mizrahi's first fashion collection, which
debuted to critical acclaim in 1986, and running though the present
day, this stylish, lavishly illustrated book presents his signature
couture collections. Mizrahi's exuberant couture style is classic
American, inventively reimagined. He pioneered the concept of
"high/low" in fashion, and was the first high-end fashion designer
to create an accessibly priced mass-market line. Mizrahi approached
other complex issues through his designs, as well-mixing questions
of beauty and taste with those of race, religion, class, and
politics. Although Mizrahi (b. 1961) is best known for his
clothing, his work in theater, film, and television is also
explored. The result is a spirited discourse on high versus low,
modern glamour, and contemporary culture. Three essayists discuss
Mizrahi's place in fashion history, his close connection to
contemporary art, and the performative nature of his designs. New
photography brings Mizrahi's fashions to life, and an interview
with the artist offers an intimate perspective on his kaleidoscopic
work in diverse media. Published in association with the Jewish
Museum, New York Exhibition Schedule: Jewish Museum, New York
