A Global and Unique Collection of Hot Emerging Fashion Designers; New Affordable Price and Design. Beneath the feminine and lacy mystique of Phaidon's new paperback edition of SAMPLE: 100 FASHION DESIGNERS 10 CURATORS is a backstage pass to a global and unique contemporary fashion show. Truly international in scope, SAMPLE presents 100 of ... more »the world's most creative and outstanding emerging fashion designers working today, selected by 10 of the most respected figures in the field - including Alexander McQueen, Brana Wolf, Tim Blanks and recent Oscar nominee for costume design, Arianne Phillips. SAMPLE features exceptional young designers from the four fashion capitals and dozen of other locations around the world from Auckland to Vienna. Designers selected include Lara Bohinc, a Slovenian-born jeweler who is now experimenting with men's jewellery while consulting for Cartier; Osaka-based Cosmic Wonder whose collections of wearable clothing have been presented as mysterious installations in Parisian art galleries; New York-based Costello Tagliapietra, a collection composed only of jersey dresses and Fabia Bercsek, a Sao Paulo designer who samples graphics and holograms into prints reinventing Brazilian street wear with a retro glamour. This new edition follows the creative inspiration of its hardback original predecessor, whose pleated-paper cover and varying page dimension has made it a much sought after collector's item. Edited by fashion writer Bronwyn Cosgrave and designed by Julia Hasting, the book has a delicate lace-embossed cover that speaks to the inherent femininity of fashion and design. SAMPLE's unique content reveals rare and archival material, including formative design sketches, computer renderings and candid backstage photographs. Fashion designers contributed extensive original material to the projects, from Missoni fabric swatches to Christopher Bailey's hand-drawn sketches just for this book. With 1,000 color illustrations, SAMPLE illustrates the processes behind seasonal collections, as well as showcases final pieces from the realms of men's wear, woman's wear, shoes, hats and accessories. Concise, descriptive texts by the curators explain the designers' work and the characteristics that make their fashion truly groundbreaking. SAMPLE paperback edition is an affordable and unique collectors' item for the style-conscious as well as an indispensable reference tool for anyone with an interest in fashion today.
