About this product

Product Information

If mid-1990s British fashion conjurs up images of vicious or tricksy tailoring and sexually-charged power-dressing, Chalayan represents its more gentle, cerebral side. The Turkish-Cypriot-born designer's clothing is highly modern, delicately feminine and about as close to pure as it is possible for fashion to be. -- The Independent, LondonWhile most fashion designers seem to focus mainly on glamour, Hussein Chalayan's work is conceptual, often political in nature, and inspired by subjects like science--DNA strands, archaeology, the impending extinction of wildlife--sculpture, techlogy and architectural theories. (In one of his most famous collections, chairs and tables were transformed into garments on the runway.) Through his compelling originality, unusual approach to design, beautifully tailored clothing, and invative use of fabrics, Chalayan has garnered a loyal following of celebrity fans like Madonna, Sofia Coppola and Björk. Hussein Chalayan celebrates the designer's 10th anniversary, and is the first in-depth mograph of his work.
