From its origins in the eighteenth-century literature of terror to its contemporarymanifestations in vampire fiction, cinema and art, the gothic has embraced thepowers of horror and the erotic macabre. ‘Gothic’ is an epithet with a strange history—evoking images of death, destruction and decay. Ironically, its negativeconnotations have made the gothic an ideal symbol of rebellion for a wide rangeof cultural outsiders. Popularly associated with black-clad teenagers and rock musicians, gothic fashion encompasses not only subcultural styles (from old-school goth to cyber-goth and beyond) but also high fashion by such designers asAlexander McQueen, John Galliano of Christian Dior, Rick Owens, OlivierTheyskens and Yohji Yamamoto. As the text and lavish illustrations in this booksuggest, gothic fashion has deep cultural roots that give it an enduring potency.

From Wonder Woman’s satin stars and golden bracelets to Batman’s brooding capeand mask, the style of superheroes’ dress has influenced both street wear and highfashion. This richly illustrated book explores how radical couture, avant-gardesportswear and state-of-the-art military garments—as seen through the lens of thesuperhero—can be metaphors for sex, power and politics. Beginning with the origins of the superhero costume, this volume looks at how designers have been influenced by iconographic components such as the cape, mask, boots and unitard.Costumes, such as those worn by Batman and Catwoman, are examined as reflections of sexual and physical prowess, while others, most notably those of Superman and Captain America, are analysed as political propaganda.

While the classically inspired ‘Grecian’ gown designed by Madame Alix Grès iswidely recognised and admired, little else of the brilliant couturier’s life or workhas received close attention. This book, by far the most detailed study yet published on this influential fashion designer, carefully analyses Madame Grès’ innovative construction techniques and connects her designs to the art styles andmovements that inspired and informed her aesthetic.

“Mears brings to her subject a genuine appreciation for the engineering thatformed the basis of Grès’s innovation and for her tenacious, obsessive pursuit ofcustom techniques that were inherently uncommercial, severely curtailing theexpansion of her business empire.”—Holly Brubach, New York Times, Style Magazine

In the annals of fashion history, French couturier Paul Poiret is known for liberating women from corsets and introducing pantaloons for women. However,it is Poiret’s innovations in the cut and construction of clothing, made all themore remarkable by the fact that he could not sew, that secures his legacy. This essential book is the first to explore Poiret’s radical modernity from a number ofperspectives. Essays by renowned scholars describe the historical context of hiswork; its relation to the dominant artistic discourses of the early twentieth century; his muse, Denise Poiret, and her influence on his work; and his role inthe paradigmatic shift to a new ideal of feminine beauty.

Fabergé, Tiffany, Lalique—these great designers came together only once to display their goods in what was probably the most opulent exhibition evermounted. At the 1900 Exposition Universelle in Paris, the three strove to positionthemselves ahead of their many competitors in the luxury market, each presentinghis jewellery and home adornments as high art. Their success is explored in thissplendidly illustrated catalogue, which elucidates the prewar pinnacle of Europeanculture. The array of displayed objects was mesmerising: Tiffany glass, Easter eggsto dazzle the Czars, realistic insects created in precious materials as sinister decorations. Many of these bore influences of the advanced art of the time, suchas Art Nouveau, Viennese modernism and symbolism and of styles from aroundthe world.
