How do you reconcile tradition and modernity? Why does a classic remain absolutely fashionable, even if it outstrips current trends? How do luxury brands stand the test of time and become timeless and essential?

In the course of this chronological journey, you’ll discover the excellence of the materials, the combination of colors, the constant quest for innovation and the perfection of made-to-measure, all of which contribute to the emotional magic emanating from the models.
Superbly illustrated with archive images and photographs from contemporary collections, this book also includes a thematic directory of 160 brands, detailing their origins and the secrets behind their iconic models.
