The Fashion Lover's BOOK LIST

A great fashion book is a gift that keeps on giving. It’s like food for the brain, an opportunity to get away from the ordinary and dip your toe into the glamour that surrounds you. Finding the perfect one, however, is an overwhelming endeavour.

To make things easier for you, we’ve curated a list of nine great fashion books split into biographies, fun and intense reads that will keep you entertained, inspired and, above all, well dressed.

The Chiffon Trenches: A Memoir
by André Leon Talley

There was a point in time when André Leon Talley (ALT) was the moment, quite literally. The Chiffon Trenches follows his ascent, through a series of unexpected twists and turns, to becoming one of fashion’s most influential stylists. Brimming with intimate stories about the who’s who of the fashion world, André’s stroll down memory lane offers an honest-to-goodness view of the volatile power dynamics that exist within the fashion industry – and how they continue to evolve. His climb to, and subsequent fall from, the ranks of the elite, is bittersweet to digest but it was what cemented his place as one of the greatest champions to transform both industry and cultural expectations. Sure to make you laugh, cry and feel all of your feelings long after the last page, André Leon Talley’s journey is a tale of triumph over adversity – or at least an attempt at one.
