ISBN: 978-0-300-13692-0 "While the classically inspired ?Grecian? gown designed by Madame Alix Grès is widely recognized and admired, little else of the brilliant couturier?s life or work has received close attention. This book, by far the most detailed study yet published on this influential fashion designer, carefully analyzes Madame Grès? innovative construction techniques and connects her designs to the art styles and movements that inspired and informed her aesthetic. Gorgeously illustrated with images of fabulous clothes designed by Madame Grès, the book focuses on her long career (spanning the early 1930s to the late 1980s) and refutes the previous understanding that her work was static and unchanging. Rather, her designs consistently changed and evolved, even as a thread of continuity connected them." (From DJ).

Dust jacket now protected in mylar sleeve. Madame Grès (30 November 1903- 24 November 1993) born Germaine Émilie Krebs, also known as Alix Barton, was a leading French couturier of her generation and costume designer. She founded the former haute couture fashion house "Grès" as well as the associated perfume house "Parfums Grès" which still exists today in Switzerland. Remembered as the "Sphinx of Fashion", Grès was notoriously secretive about her personal life and was seen as a workaholic with a furious attention to detail, therefore she preferred to let her work do the talking. Called the "master of the wrapped and draped dress" and "queen of drapery",[2] Grès is best known for her floor-length draped Grecian goddess gowns. - Wiki.
