Opis

In Gods and Kings Dana Thomas, author of Deluxe, traces the dramatic fortunes of Alexander McQueen and John Galliano. In the first decade of the 21st Century, the fashion world was dominated by two very different but equally successful - and turbulent - figures. But then, within twelve months, Alexander McQueen had committed suicide, and John Galliano's career had unravelled in public after he was arrested for an anti-Semitic tirade at a Paris bar. Both had been at the height of their success. In Gods and Kings, investigative journalist Dana Thomas uses the story of these two charismatic figures to look behind the closed doors of the notoriously secretive fashion world. This is an account of ambition, creativity, talent, strife, excess and the machinations of a multi-billion dollar industry. [Praise for Dana Thomas' Deluxe]: "A crisp, witty social history that's as entertaining as it is informative". (Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times). "A fascinating book". (Fareed Zakaria, Newsweek). "What Fast Food Nation did for food service, this book does for fashion". (Los Angeles Times). Dana Thomas began her career writing for the Style section of The Washington Post and served as Newsweek's European culture and fashion correspondent for fifteen years. She has written for The New York Times Magazine, The New Yorker, WSJ, the Financial Times, Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, and was the European editor of Conde Nast Portfolio. She is a contributing editor for T: The New York Times Style Magazine, and is the author of the New York Times bestseller, Deluxe: How Luxury Lost Its Luster. She lives in Paris.
