Fabulous Frocks
No item of clothing has endured for longer than the dress. Yet the last century alone has seen the most radical changes of style--hemlines swinging from ankle to thigh, outlines alternating between the body-hugging and the bell--and our fascination w
ith the frock has not gone away. From Gres' draping to Dior's New Look, from Mary Quant's mini to Hussein Chalayan's mechanical marvels, this book looks at the dress in 20th-century fashion. Thematic chapters--Changes, Feminine, Sex, Must-Haves, Fant
asy, Classical, and Art--set out the inspirations and implications for each new change alongside the stunning photography. It has been more than 80 years since Coco Chanel invented the little black dress, but most women still have one in their wardro
bes today. It's been decades since women discovered trousers and separates, but many women dream of wearing a glorious, glamorous gown at least once, whether it's on a Hollywood red carpet, or on her wedding day.

Frank Sinatra: A Life in Pictures
A dandy, a crooner and an actor, talented and scandalous, as close to the Kennedys as to the underworld barons, Frank Sinatra fascinates. Coming from a small town in New Jersey, the bad boy married Ava Gardner and conquered Hollywood, starring in ove
r 60 films and winning an Oscar for Best Supporting Actor in 1953 for his role in From Here to Eternity. It's thanks to music, however, that his talent gained worldwide recognition. Nicknamed 'The Voice' by the international press, Sinatra imposed hi
s unique style and sold over 150 million albums in his 62-year career. Sinatra can be seen as a monumental artist. His life is summed up in one of his first hits: 'Nothing but the Best'; he was always associated with the best composers, best musician
s and best arrangers. In his personal life it was also the best vintage wine, the most beautiful women and all the extravagant luxury that accompanies a superstar (and some would say a bad boy's) life. Frank Sinatra, Life in Pictures recalls this exc
eptional journey through a captivating biography and rare and intimate photographs.
