"Whoever does not visit Paris regularly will never really be
elegant." - Honoré de Balzac
Paris has always been the home of high fashion. The epicenter of classic
chic, whether haute couture or street style, designers and fashion
lovers travel from across the world to breathe in the understated and
sensual style of the Parisian streets. From the iconic luxury of Chanel,
Dior and Saint Laurent, to the effortless sophistication of the typical
Parisian, the city's look is replicated the world over.
Following the evolution of a uniquely elegant capital - describing both
the moments of ingenuity and enduring looks and icons that embody the
city of light - this beautifully illustrated book is not only the
perfect guide to embracing Parisian fashion, but to embracing the
Parisian spirit itself.
