Yves Saint Laurent do kabelky
Yves Saint Laurent pozvedl haute couture na umění, módní přehlídky proměnil v představení, z nichž se tají dech, a dámskou módu zmodernizoval prostřednictvím androgynní klasiky.
Saint Laurent se narodil v Alžírsku a z mladého studenta módy se velmi rychle stal pravou rukou Christiana Diora. Po jeho smrti se ujal vedení salonu, ale v roce 1961 založil vlastní značku YSL. Vytvořil slavný kalhotový kostým „Le Smoking" a geometrické mondrianovské šaty, z kožené bundy udělal běžný oděv a omráčil svět módy spojením luxusu a dramatického umění. Yves Saint Laurent do kabelky přináší přehled života a díla tajemného, odvážného a neuvěřitelně kreativního návrháře.
Emma Baxterová-Wrightová je britská módní publicistka, stylistka a autorka knihy Chanel do kabelky.

Yves Saint Laurent - Divatikonok VI.
Úgy tartják, Yves Saint Laurent-nak köszönhetően lett az haute couture-ből művészet, a divatbemutatóból pedig lélegzetelállító méreteket öltő látványosság, és szintén ő modernizálta a női divat fogalmát is klasszikus androgün darabjaival.
Az Algériában született Saint Laurent divatnövendékből szélsebesen emelkedett fel Christian Dior jobbkezévé, majd karrierje tetőpontját akkor érte el, amikor átvette a Dior márka vezetését az alapító halála után.
Saint Laurent 1961-ben megalapította saját divatházát, majd megalkotta híres "le smoking" nadrágkosztümjét és Mondrian ruháját, bevezette a bőrdzsekit a mainstream divatba, ugyanakkor az egész divatvilágot meghökkentette a luxus és a művészi dráma ötvözésével.
A Divatikonok sorozat VII. kötete pazar illusztrációkkal és hiteles szöveggel dokumentálja a rejtélyes, merész és elképesztően kreatív tervező életét és munkásságát.
"A divat elhalványul, a stílus örök. Az én álmom az, hogy a nőknek olyan klasszikus ruhatar alapjait nyújtsam, amely megszabadul a pillanatnyi divattól, és ezáltal nagyobb önbizalmat ad nekik."

Little Book of Chanel by Lagerfeld
The House of Chanel is synonymous with not one, but two, iconic designers. First there was Gabrielle, and then there was Karl.
Chanel is a house known for its signatures that not only changed the course of fashion history but still resonate today - the Little Black Dress, the tweed suit, costume jewellery, Chanel No5. These signatures were inspired by Gabrielle Chanel's taste, life experience and travels - but it was Karl Lagerfeld who took these signatures and ingeniously adapted them for the twenty-first century woman. From his first days at the helm of Chanel in the 1980s, to his creative application of the Chanel logo to everything from biker boots to a space rocket, King Karl's reign at Chanel is nothing if not legendary.
Little Book of Chanel by Lagerfeld covers his most exquisite pieces, breathtaking catwalk shows and constant reinvention that have maintained Chanel as the most illustrious couture house in the world. Written by the bestselling author of Little Book of Chanel, this beautifully illustrated book is the essential guide to Lagerfeld's tenure at Chanel.
Divatikonok 2: Chanel
Coco Chanel a világ talán legnagyobb hatású divatforradalmára volt: a kis fekete ruhája, a buklé kabátjai, a műgyöngyei és a kéttónusú cipői - mind-mind nagyon gyorsan hihetetlenül népszerűvé váltak. Megragadta a kínálkozó pillanatot, és megadta a nőknek, amit kívántak, még mielőtt azok felismerték volna, mire van igényük. A férfi ruhatár alapjaiból indult ki a női kiteljesedés megteremtéséhez, és olyan demokratikus öltözködési kódexet hozott létre, amely szabadságot, egyenlőséget és visszafogott klasszikus stílust tükrözött.
A könyv Coco Chanel életét, illetve életművét mutatja be. Látjuk őt, ahogy szerény körülmények között elindult az életútja, ahogy globális jelenséggé vált, és parfümökkel, ékszerekkel és kiegészítőkkel bővült a márkája, és olyan örökséget hagyott maga után, amelyet a Chanel mind a mai napig követ. A tervezőnő még most, sok évvel a halála után is megmaradt a Chanel-ház mögött rejtőző névleges vezéralaknak.

Chanel: Príbeh ikonickej módnej značky
Unikátny obrazový sprievodca históriou módnej značky Chanel
Gabrielle „Coco“ Chanelová bola výnimočná a provokujúca žena, ktorá prvá pochopila postavenie módnej návrhárky ako novodobej celebrity. Šikovne prepojila svoju profesiu a svoj životný príbeh, brutálne zmenila minulosť, neraz radikálne upravila pravdu a verejnosti predostrela výsledný obraz seba ako vzoru pre budúcu celosvetovú značku. Všetko, čo robila, podčiarkoval jej komplikovaný osobný život, ktorý mal vždy vplyv na jej prácu. Postupne sa stala vplyvnou návrhárkou, milenkou aj spolupracovníčkou, ktorá hladko prechádzala cestičkou medzi vysokou spoločnosťou a avantgardnými umeleckými kruhmi.
Coco Chanelová má na konte niektoré z najinovatívnejších módnych kreácií sveta, napríklad malé čierne šaty, sako z buklé, umelé perly a dvojfarebné dámske lodičky. Chanelová využila príležitosť a dala ženám presne to, čo chceli, tesne predtým, než si to samy uvedomili. Na základe mužského šatníka vytvorila energický štýl a poskytla ženám demokratický spôsob obliekania, ktorý v konečnom dôsledku priniesol slobodu, rovnosť a nenápadný klasicizmus.
Kniha oslavuje život a dielo tejto neobyčajne vplyvnej návrhárky a sleduje jej cestu za úspechom zo skromných pomerov až po globálny fenomén značky, ktorá svoje pole pôsobnosti rozšírila aj o parfumy, šperky a doplnky. Dokonca aj dnes, štyridsať rokov po smrti, zostáva Coco neodmysliteľným symbolom módneho domu Chanel.
