  • Description

    "In a major shift from earlier books on the subject, WearableArt has been completely revised in a lavish large format. It features the best garments from recent years, immaculately photographed in a studio setting to show them in all their glorious detail. In addition there is a section of performance photographs taken onstage during the WOW Awards show, a section with garments that tell a story beyond the stage and a comprehensive designer's index"--Inside dust jacker.
