The Collection of The Museum at FIT","description":"Sky-high, ornate, and the pinnacle of glamour, both restrictive and liberating, art object and deeply ordinary, shoes tell the story of shifting attitudes toward desire, power, and wealth throughout history. Lace up for a journey through the most enviable shoe closet from the permanent collection at The Museum at the Fashion Institute of Technology—and four centuries of fashion’s hardest working accessory.  Featuring designs from the likes of Louis Vuitton, Salvatore Ferragamo, Chanel, Gucci, Saint Laurent, Roger Vivier, Christian Louboutin, and more, Shoes A–Z. The Collection of The Museum at FIT celebrates fashion’s most revolutionary and coveted labels with more than 400 styles selected from the Museum’s pristinely preserved collection. Texts from Daphne Guinness, Valerie Steele, Colleen Hill, and The Museum’s expert team of curators explore the unique legacy of each of the featured designers and the lasting cultural impact of the shoe.

Barbie and other dolls in wardrobes have been designed by contemporary legends such as Margiela, Byron Lars, Jason Wu, and Viktor \u0026amp; Rolf. While dolls and fashion have long been intertwined, the 2023 release of the film Barbie created a shockwave through popular culture on the way to grossing $1.45 billion globally. This book goes beyond just the popularity of dolls to explore 'dollification'  achieved through clothing, accessories, hair, makeup, and even movement and gesture to challenge stereotypes of beauty, gender, age, and race.    Long before Barbie changed how we play, dolls and fashion shared a history. In sixteenth-century Europe, dolls were exchanged and collected by royals, a way to show off the latest styles of one court to another.  Long before magazines, dolls spread fashion trends to dressmakers in France and Italy. In the nineteenth century, dolls became popular toys for girls. Fashion dolls have been studied for their role in promoting or reflecting historical fashion, particularly because doll clothing often survives longer than full-size clothes.  With brilliant new photography, neon pink pages, and a special clear hardcover case, this book is a jewel-box addition to any doll-lovers  shelf.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":53506190475537,"sku":"NGR9780847877263","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9780847877263.jpg?v=1778107467"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/collections\/author-books-by-colleen-hill.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
