Get your coffee table or bookshelf ready for these two new
fashion bibles , a new series of books from British Vogue exploring the key
pieces in a "stylish woman’s wardrobe".
To start off we have Vogue Essentials: Little Black Dress by
Chloe Fox and Vogue Essentials: Handbags by Carolyn Asome, this irresistible
new series from Conran Octopus and British Vogue explores the key pieces in a
stylish woman's wardrobe and features photographs from Vogue's peerless archive
of more than a million pictures.
'One is never
over-dressed or under-dressed with a Little Black Dress'
Karl Lagerfeld
Ninety years after Vogue dubbed Coco Chanel's simple short
black 'Ford' dress 'the frock that all the world will wear', Chloe Fox
celebrates the best LBDs in Vogue Essentials: Little Black Dress. From the
bold, dramatic designs of Zandra Rhodes to the eye-catching LBDs by Vivienne
Westwood, from the pared-down simplicity of Calvin Klein's shift dresses to an
asymmetric shoulder evening gown by Versace, Vogue Essentials: Little Black
Dress celebrates the very best of the LBD.
'Any woman can wear
shoes and handbags: it's not a question of how tall you are, how skinny you
are, how blonde or blue-eyed or tanned or whatever.'
Marc Jacobs
Carolyn Asome reveals the fashion accessory that can make
any woman feel fabulous - from the myriad surrealist creations of Karl
Lagerfeld at Chanel to Prada's democratic nylon backpack, from the exclusive
Hermes Birkin bag to individual vintage gems, the handbag is fashion's most
inventive accessory.
No shock, then, that the handbag market today is worth more
than a hundred billion dollars. From each season's must-have to five-figure
rarities, the handbag symbolizes the inexplicable power of fashion desire.
Vogue Essentials: Handbags explores all the greatest hits in a collection that
any fashion devotee will covet.
