A fully illustrated biography of iconic American designer Ralph Lauren told through the lens of fashion
From the author of Dressing the Man, the seminal tome on men's
fashion, comes the illustrated biography of Ralph Lauren. Published in
time for Lauren's 80th birthday on October 14, 2019, Alan Flusser's book
looks at the life of the iconic American designer through the lens of
fashion and cultural impact. This high-level, yet intimate, reflection
on the life and work of Ralph Lauren shows how a preppy young boy from
the Bronx created one of the most recognizable brands in American
fashion.
Rezensionen / Stimmen
Flusser gives the reader the opportunity to absorb the subject matter on so many planes. Some will call it a fashion book, others might call it a biography. Ralph Lauren: In His Own Fashionis unquestionably a superb primer for those who have not read or followed the trajectory of Mr. Lauren. The prospective reader might also find that the book serves as living proof that believing in oneself is paramount when trying to achieve one's goals. Again, the book's appeal stretches far wider than just fashion. -- The New York Journal of Books
