Media Reviews
.. .This is one of the most intimate and visual stories about one of the most legendary and iconic designers of the 20th and 21st centuries. The book is filled with photographs rarely before seen, mostly in black and white. In size, it is more on the scale of a personal diary rather than the mega volumes we are more accustomed to for fashion designers. The photographs are compelling and illustrative of the designer, his career, and his life, impressing one with their content rather than staggering size. The very brief text is extremely intelligent and extraordinarily on point... New York Journal of Books
