The Model as Muse

Embodying Fashion

By: Harold Koda,Kohle Yohannan

[Book] examines the relationship between high fashion and the evolving ideals of beauty through the careers and personifications of iconic models who posed in the salons, walked the runways, and exploded onto the pages of Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, and even Life and Time. High-profile models enlivened the designs of the world's most celebrated couturiers and, on occasion, even inspired them." --Book jacket.

Claire McCardell

Redefining Modernism

By: Kohle Yohannan

An independent, pioneering, resolutely American attitude toward the world and, specifically toward fashion, formed the sturdy design backbone of Claire McCardell (1905-1958). Today we credit McCardell as having created an American style of casual dress in the twentieth century that was without precedent. But at a time when every American designer of note was sent to Paris to copy the latest styles, McCardell shrugged off the Paris couture industry, refusing, after 1940, to visit the collections or even to look at Paris design for fear it might influence her. In Claire McCardell: Redefining Modernism, coauthors Kohle Yohannan and Nancy Nolf have told a story that is as much biography as it is fashion history. The 103 photos include many of the designer wearing her clothes, for McCardell was her own muse and fit model.

Valentina

American Couture and the Cult of Celebrity

By: Kohle Yohannan

The first American celebrity fashion designer of the twentieth century, Valentina lived on equal social footing with the high society and movie star clients she dressed a formidable claim when one considers that Norma Shearer, Marlene Dietrich, Katharine Hepburn, Gloria Swanson, as well as generations of Vanderbilts and Whitneys were all loyal Valentina customers. Presciently aware of the power of the media, Valentina s meteoric rise to fame and fortune in the 1940s helped to elevate the social status of the American fashion designer." "The first book fully dedicated to this fascinating woman s life and career, this volume includes many never-before-seen masterworks of photography, including platinum prints by Horst P. Horst, George Hoyningen-Huene, and Cecil Beaton, as well as original sketches, letters, snapshots, and ephemera from private collections around the world and the estate of Valentina Schlee." --Book Jacket.
