Mastering Fashion styling
Fashion is a very popular subject among young people. Any course with fashion as a prefix attracts lots of students. Despite this, many prospective students and people have little idea what jobs in the fashion industry entail. Fashion Styling is one of the least well researched areas in fashion colleges. The emphasis is put on the end result, i.e. visual imagery, rather than the process of creating it. This 'how to' book provides an insight into the processes you have to follow to work in this area, be it editorial, commercial or show styling. It includes an eight-week introductory programme to the subject and projects whereby students can simulate professional practice and learn the techniques and skills necessary for a career in styling. At the end of the book there is a source directory, a glossary of terms, and a bibliography which provide reference points for further research and study.

The Biba Years
Founded as a boutique mail-order service in 1963, Biba--the brainchild of designer Barbara Hulanicki--quickly gained cult status, and outgrew several London premises before landing at 99-117 Kensington High Street in 1973 as "Big Biba, the most beautiful store in the world." This book tells the story of the Biba years, from the first ensembles through the four London shops, to the eventual flourishing of a lifestyle brand that revolutionized British retail and fashion culture.
Nick Drake
Experience the definitive biography of one of the greatest singer-songwriters of the twentieth century with this eye-opening book featuring a foreword by Gabrielle Drake and over 75 photos, many rare or previously unseen. In 1968, Nick Drake had everything to live for. The product of a loving, creative family and a privileged background, he was not only a handsome and popular Cambridge undergraduate, but also a new signing to the UK’s hippest record label, Island. Three years later, however—having made three well reviewed but low-selling albums—Nick had been overwhelmed by a mysterious mental illness. He returned to live in his family home in rural Warwickshire in 1971, and died in obs...

Intrigo internazionale
New York. Autunno 1964. Benvenuti nel luogo e nel tempo degli incontri spiazzanti, nel mix di upper class e working class , intellettuali e rifiuti umani, fan e star. James Bond, Andy Warhol, Susan Sontag, Victor J. Banis: spie e celebrità di ordini culturali diversi, figure dello scarto, icone d'identità clandestina, emblemi di un elitarismo di massa, dei margini del visibile. Protagonisti di un copione in maschera il cui modo è l'ironia, quella forma di perversione – è il camp, dirà Sontag, recuperando una tradizione radicata nell'esuberanza teatrale e nelle sessualità eccentriche di fine Ottocento – che celebra l'eccesso, la messinscena di sé, «le cose che sono ciò che non so...
