Sashay away, ladies: it's the boys' turn for the fashion spotlight. From
Louis XIV to Kanye West, Jennifer Croll takes us on a tour of daring and
different men throughout history who have all used fashion to get what
they want. Just as she did in her award-winning Bad Girls of Fashion,
Croll shows us the power of clothes and the links between fashion and
politics, art, social movements, and more.
Croll's lively and engaging prose draws in the reader, providing enough
information to satisfy both budding fashionistas and pop-culture junkies
alike. Aneta Pacholska's illustrations are modern and fun, perfectly
complementing the text and making the book as exciting to look at as it
is to read.
In-depth features include Louis XIV, Oscar Wilde, Marlon Brando, Malcolm
X, Andy Warhol, Karl Lagerfeld, Clyde Frazier, Malcolm McLaren, David
Bowie, and Kanye West, with a diverse array of shorter biographies
enriching the text.
