‘Fashion as told by those who make it’
A French title from fashion historian Salomé Dudemaine and vintage expert Julien Sanders, Griffé blends fashion's historical and commercial sides by honing in on the label as a starting point to explore a single fashion house through the stories that ‘lurk in the shadow of the lining.’
Following Maison Margiela and Mugler, this third edition looks at Kenzo—‘the most festive Parisian house’—beginning with a comprehensive history of founder Kenzo Takada across Tokyo and Paris. Chock full of archival photography and visual ephemera, this is followed by sections dedicated to his grand runway shows, longtime collaborator Deanna Ferretti Veroni, the menswear line, and of course, a gorgeous collection of labels to top it all off.
