Description
Megan Hess: The Shoe is an illustrated love story about the most coveted accessory of any designer wardrobe, from internationally renowned fashion illustrator Megan Hess.
A piece of fashion is so much more than an object. To the designer who creates it, the muse who inspires it, or the fashion lover who lusts after it, that piece is part of a story.
Nothing quite says style like an incredible pair of shoes. The red sole of a Louboutin, the jewelled buckle of a Manolo Blahnik, the simple perfection of a Chanel slingback, or the incredible finishes on a Jimmy Choo – these are the details that complete an outfit and define timeless elegance.
Megan Hess: The Shoe is the latest in the Ultimate Fashion Wardrobe series, filled with fascinating information and stunning illustrations and packaged up in a beautiful hardback: the ideal accessory for any creative life.
