The first monograph on fashion designer Prabal Gurung, packed with stories, design inspiration, and never-before-seen photographs.

In February 2017, Prabal Gurung ended his show with a parade of feminist tees featuring phrases like "This Is What a Feminist Looks Like," "Voices for Choices," and "We Will Not Be Silenced." A year later, his collection took inspiration from two female-dominated Asian cultures. Activism is built into designer Gurung's ethos, and the celebration of female empowerment serves as a constant focal point of his designs.

He presents femininity with a bite, beauty with substance, and a diverse, inclusive world that is "Stronger in Colour."

Prabal Gurung offers a window into Gurung's design process, and it is filled with inspiration, mood boards, sketches, runway shots, and photographs of the clothing from the last 10 years.

The Prabal Gurung woman is modern, intelligent, elegant, assured, and socially responsible, and this book is a celebration of people of all ages, races, shapes, sizes, sexualities, and identities.
