Ultimate and unprecedented, American Fashion is a richly
illustrated celebration of the history of fashion in this country.
Commissioned by the Council of Fashion Designers of America CFDA,
AMERICAN FASHION is a visual journey beginning with the protean
creators in Hollywood and New York during the1930s and the
significant and creative expansion that took place in the years
surrounding World War II. The book follows this evolution from the
little known talents of the postwar years transitioning to the
ensuing 1950s when an ever expanding cast of designers were
transformed into national and later international stars. This
creative crescendo continues to the growth of major names in
American fashion during 1960s and 1970s, and goes on to explore the
achievements of American design''s brand name marquee stars of the
1980s and 1990s. The book culminates with a look at the
contemporary talents of today who continue to export their
individual visions of modern American fashion on a global stage.
Also included is a collection of portraits of the CFDA?s historic
and contemporary designers. Elegant and definitive, with over 300
iconic photographs and the work of more than 100 designers, the
book captures the superlative work of American designers as seen by
the century?s greatest photographers and illustrators. American
Fashion is the essential modern atlas for over 70 exciting years of
great American fashion. Charlie Scheips is a cultural historian,
