Veteran New York photographer

Roxanne Lowit has chronicled

John GallianoÂs fashion shows for

over a decade. With a rough-hewn,

up-close approach she delves into

the fascinating details behind the

scenes. Her collection of snapshotstyle

photographs convey the buzz

of fashionÂs consistently most inspiring

spectacle. A bold mixture of

color and black-and-white, these

images are by turns whimsical and

awe-inspiring. As much a star as the

celebrities she profiles, Lowit brings

an insider perspective to this world

of high glamour.

Galiano: the soul of Dior

October 17, 2011

Format: HardcoverVerified Purchase

John Galiano is a genious. His creations have become consubstantial to Dior and it will be rather difficult for this Maison de Haute Coûture to find another couturier that could replace him. This book is a masterpiece that shows the art of Galiano through an impeccable photography and right texts.

Sad.

February 3, 2017

Format: HardcoverVerified Purchase

I purchased this book by description , but also due to previous reviews. I collect designer source books of this type, with Doir being at the top of my list. I was highly dissapointed with this book for the following reasons:
The writing is simplistic and lack luster, breif, partial pages with large empty spaces.
The photos are not especially clear, particularly well chosen or resourceful.
Last, but certainly not least, the whole book seems to to a blown up version of a small book, extra large lettering, blown up unclear photos, empty spaces, very thick pages.
Sad .
I would like to add that MANY of Gallianos spectacular collections and designs are NOT included in this book, and too mych emphasis is put on the photographers work instead of the designer himself.

Priceless

June 1, 2010

Format: Hardcover

This exquisite book is a fitting tribute to the great John Galliano. Lowit's photos are every bit as eccentric and original as the designs they capture. Whether backstage, on the runway or in fittings, she seems to wrest passion from every square inch of each image. If you're a longtime fan of Dior and Galliano or new to the party, this is a special book that you shouldn't miss. It is a visual riot, capturing the irreverent, unmistakable creative spirit that IS Dior.

Great coffee table book

January 4, 2010

Format: Hardcover

This is a great coffee table book. The pictures are clear and vivid. However, I wish it showcased the shoes, bags, and clothes more. There were some shots of the makeup, which was very cool, but other than that, it was just a bunch of candid pictures that didn't really show off Dior. I would ask for it as a gift, not buy it for myself.
