Description
Barbara Hulanicki's autobiography is a lively and witty account of her life, from the early days of her BIBA Shop to its rise as a Swinging London icon. The story of how the business grew from a small room to a five-story department store is one of adventure and entrepreneurial spirit. As Hulanicki recounts her experiences, she evokes the vibrant atmosphere of 1960s and 1970s London, where fashion, music, and the arts converged. The book is a personal and engaging exploration of her life, with clarity and insight into the events that shaped her journey. With its engaging narrative and behind-the-scenes look at the fashion industry, this autobiography is a fascinating read for anyone interested in the history of fashion and the stories of those who helped shape it.
