Fashion Texts: Required Reading (The Beautiful Fall)
Gentle Reader -
For the past few seasons, this book has been the source of inspiration for quite a few collections. Though the trend-setting personalities and lifestyles of a carefree Paris of the 1970's are captured in a fresh way (particularly in the first half of the book), The Beautiful Fall marks a transition from the couture to ready-to-wear.
As the round of Spring/Summer 2012 collections nears completion, some things to keep in mind:
Yves Saint Laurent still looms as a fashion force
Production capability for ready-to-wear is actually higher than production budgets may allow
Fashion today is aimed at profitable markets worldwide
Fashion presentations should never be taken literally
