Description
Through photographs of both iconic and individual styles, this book decodes celebrity fashion secrets and demonstrates how to effortlessly reproduce the showstopping looks.
What are Kate Moss' sartorial obsessions? How does Gigi Hadid create fashion buzz? Which tricks does Gwyneth Paltrow use to stay on top of new trends? What defines Kate Middleton's "princess" style? From her years as a fashion journalist for Elle and her front row seat at the runway shows, Sophie Gachet—a true fashion guru—has all the answers. Here, she breaks down celebrity looks and fashion trends into their essential elements, making them accessible to everyone.
One hundred twenty celebrities including Victoria Beckham, Cate Blanchett, Millie Bobby Brown, Priyanka Chopra, Billie Eilish, Kaia Gerber, Ashley Graham, Kendall Jenner, Meghan Markle, Lupita Nyong'o, Olivia Palermo, Rihanna, Margot Robbie, and Zendaya provide wardrobe inspiration. Their singular outfits, which range from chic to cool, sporty to quirky, and urban to classic, are unpacked and dissected piece by piece. Iconic looks that have forged fashion history, such as Madonna's biker jacket, Marilyn Monroe's turtleneck, Audrey Hepburn's LBD, or Jennifer Lopez's plunging Versace dress take centre stage.
This generously illustrated book, written in the author's witty and incisive voice, is a must-have reference and indispensable style bible.
Book Hero Magic summarised reviews for this book. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! HOW HAS THIS BEEN REVIEWED?
Praised by Women's Wear Daily for its engaging breakdown of celebrity wardrobes and iconic outfits, the book offers a breezy and inspiring look at fashion. MyLittleBird.com acknowledges it as a pleasure to dream about refreshing one’s wardrobe in challenging times. However, New York Journal of Books finds the content more suited to casual readers than fashion connoisseurs. Despite differing opinions, it remains a visually appealing and witty guide to celebrity style.
