Icons of Fashion

As a guide to help me enhance my blog, I made a great purchase. I decided to read Icons of Fashion by Gerda Buxbaum. Just by looking at the cover intrigued me. And even better, taking a quick peek through the pages made my decision to buy the book even easier. This book is an invitation to rediscover the history of the 20^th century through its fashion.

Icons of Fashion offers an over all look of the development of fashion, beginning with liberation from the corset tops, through pre-war and post-war fashions, and all the way through what we wear today. This book stars advice and information from great names such as Coco Chanel, Karl Lagerfeld, Donna Karan, Miuccia Prada, and many more stylish designers. The most inspiring part about Icons of Fashion is that every single page includes a quote from different designers. I encourage all to read this book to enlighten your fashion sense and most importantly, knowledge!
