Description

Paris Refashioned, 1957-1968 explores the pivotal period in fashion history when Parisian styles were revolutionized by the ready-to-wear movement. This book delves into the often-overlooked fashions of the era, from Yves Saint Laurent's groundbreaking designs to the rise of ready-to-wear and its impact on haute couture.

Featuring eye-catching images from iconic fashion magazines and stunning examples from The Museum at FIT's collection, Colleen Hill provides an in-depth look at the combined influences of French haute couture, ready-to-wear, and popular culture during this era. Discover how the dominance of haute couture was challenged, resulting in a vibrant, youthful, and modern aesthetic that continues to shape Parisian fashion today.
