When asked whether fashion is art, there are many answers. But one thing is indisputable: fashion is a type of artistic creation, and without it we can’t imagine our lives. Fashion is part of our everyday life, and we use its results constantly. For centuries, tailors, shoemakers, hatters, perfumers—without thinking about recognition and fame—created beautiful clothes, luxurious hats, magnificent shoes, and enchanting perfumes in complete obscurity. Centuries passed, and today dozens of outstanding names are on everyone’s lips. In fashion, as in any field, there are craftsmen—but also many bright talents and even geniuses. Their work is admired no less than that of writers and poets, sculptors and artists. From this audiobook, you’ll learn about the most outstanding names in the history of fashion.
