The bright, charismatic, powerful Diana Vriland-the fashion editor of Harper’s Bazaar, the editor-in-chief of Vogue magazine and the organizer of the costume exhibitions at the metro museum-was a woman whose talent and a sense of style determined the world of high fashion for fifty years. Thanks to her, Vogue gained fame, weight and significance, and her unusual view of beauty made many artists, models and photographers famous.
From the English palaces to the night clubs of Paris of the 1930s, from Wyoming’s wild places to the exclusive places of the Higher Society of New York, the book transfers us to the dazzling life of this amazing woman and introduces us to her friends: Coco Chanel, Duke and Duchess Windsor, Clark Gabel, Jack Nicholson and other famous figures of the 20th century.
Diana Vriland revives the narrative of frank stories in his convincing and charismatic voice, whether it is a search for the perfect red color, spicy observations of the world or aversion to nostalgia. Like her heritage, the story of Vriland, told by herself, is a classic, which is highly appreciated by both devoted fans and a new generation of experts in culture and style.
For whom this book
For everyone who is interested in fashion and cult figures of fashion.
From the preface by Alena Doletskaya
“Diana Vriland, the author of this book, is the legendary editor -in -chief of the American Vogue, perhaps the brightest star on the alley of the glory of glossy journalism, a woman to the brain of bones, a lady with phenomenal passion and discipline, steel will and impeccable taste. A powerful player in the vastness of the fashion industry, she first raised Vogue to a new level, making it the most influential glossy magazine, and then a unique institution of a costume in a metro museum. Both the museum and the magazine are successfully living and flourishing so far. And yes, as a person she, of course, was more than all her mega-successful projects.
To each of you who will first read this book, I envy. Of course, snow -white envy. Diana Vriland will drag you into a pool, from which it is impossible - and will not want to get out. After reading the last phrase of her memoirs, you will understand: in a couple of days, this pool will be beckoning you again. ”
From the recall of Katya Fedorova, the author of the channel Good Morning, Karl!
“When I re -read this beautiful book, I recall how, after its first reading, I decided to work in fashion at all costs, and fall in love with my work again. I am also charged with energy, the liveliness and uncompromisingness of Diana. She always went in her own way and was not afraid to make ambitious and unusual shootings, covers and exhibitions, so to this day the most legendary glossy editor of all time. ”
From the author
I was always fascinated by the absurdity, luxury and snobbery of the world, which was demonstrated by fashion magazines. Of course, this world is not for everyone. A few had to plunge into a special atmosphere of the house, whose hostess wore dresses that appeared on Vogue pages during my youth. But I lived in this world, and not only when I worked in the magazine business, but before, because it always belonged to it - at least in my imagination
