Fashion Accessories
Gerval, Olivier
Fashion Accessories - New York Firefly Books 2008 - 222
Fashion Accessories looks at the role of accessories in the fashion world and the development and manufacturing processes that are involved in their creation. Beginning with a foreword by Alber Elbaz, Fashion Accessories opens on a historical note by looking at a number of different key museums and private collections. It then describes the variety of accessory products on the market including bags, shoes, scarves, eyewear, hats and hair accessories, as well as jewelry.
A chapter dedicated to design concepts explains the work involved in devising a collection, covering the necessary research required as well as the colors, patterns and ways in which materials are worked. There is also a large section devoted to manufacturing where, through factory situations, the step-by-step production of different bag prototypes is described. The book concludes with the promotional and marketing aspects of the business.
Illustrated with more than 1,000 color photos and drawings, the majority of which were previously unseen, it unites a number of prestigious contributors, including Marc Jacobs for Vuitton, Alber Elbaz for Lanvin, Loulou de la Falaise, Sonia Rykiel, Christian Louboutin and more. Serving as an indispensable aid for young designers and confirmed professionals alike, this book offers invaluable insight into the world of the accessory for anyone interested in fashion.
