Little Book of Schiaparelli by Emma Baxter-Wright

Little Book of Schiaparelli by Emma Baxter-Wright

Little Book of Schiaparelli chronicles the work of one of history's most influential and eccentric couturiers. Endowed with a strikingly imaginative and experimental approach to fashion, Elsa Schiaparelli cultivated a combination of the witty and the surreal, the cutting edge and the elegant, from her garments and jewellery to her collaborations with Salvador Dalí, Jean Cocteau and Alberto Giacometti. Exquisitely illustrated and expertly written, the book follows a biographical chronology detailing her life, career and primary creative themes of her work. Images of Schiaparelli's finished designs, along with close-up details and illustrations of her personal sketches, showcase the brilliance of her innovative oeuvre, and the legacy that lives on in the House of Schiaparelli to this day.

Emma Baxter-Wright has taught fashion journalism at University of the Arts London and UCA. She has contributed to many publications including the New York Observer, Cosmopolitan and Marie Claire, and is the bestselling author of Little Book of Chanel and Chanel in 55 Objects. Emma lives in London.
