The Poetry of Fashion Design: A Celebration of the World's Most Interesting Fashion Designers

Front Cover
Rockport Publishers, May 1, 2011 - Design - 384 pages

There are 108 sonnets in “Astrofel and Stella� by Sir Philip Sydney. One hundred and eight pieces that together make up total perfection and closure that would not possible if some of them did not exist. Analogically, fashion is like a poem. It is made up of different elements that tell a story with the rhythm and tension that achieves harmony. The only difference is that this is a poem that changes and evolves. The pages of this book present the 108 "sonnets" that make up and define the world of fashion today and provide a unique and inspired design source for both professional designers and fashion design enthusiasts.

About the author (2011)

Energized by an insatiable curiosity, Paz Diman left her native city of Buenos Aires and landed in Barcelona. There, she was quickly captivated by graphic design and editorial production and studied journalism at Universidad Autónoma. Now, Diman combines her fascination for the “underground� world with her love of books on graphic design, fashion, pop culture, and new media, with the intention of exposing the most intrepid ideas and the boldest creators.
