Fashion by its definition is always changing, but rarely as radically as it did in the late 1960s. This book perfectly captures the era just before the deluge, when Truman Capote's Swans and their aesthetic dominated the fashion magazines. Capote’s famed Black and White ball was still a year in the future. It, in retrospect, divided the decade into distinct eras, making an anachronism of this book long before it first went out of print. No matter, this book is great fun in any era. Spiky and opinionated, Fairchild covers the seemingly trivial details without ever forgetting the big ideas. He stops first in Paris and then New York, saving the best for last—a lengthy discussion of the Best Dressed List and those who appear on it. Includes fascinating insights into Babe Paley, Gloria Guinness, C.Z. Guest, the Duchess of Windsor, Jacqueline Kennedy, Coco Chanel, Diana Vreeland, and others of their ilk.
“Years ago when I was poor, I would buy a beautiful piece of jersey, cut a hole in the top, put it over my head and tie a beautiful sash around my waist. Everyone asked where I bought my dresses.”
--Gloria Guinness
