Antonio Berardi - Sex and Sensibility (Hardcover)

Antonio Berardi's clothes are renowned not only for their unashamed glamour and sexiness, but also for their impeccable tailoring and detailed craftsmanship. A former assistant to John Galliano, Berardi showed his first collection in 1994 and has since put many memorable creations on the catwalk - from his signature pierced leather trouser-suits to the famous bobbin-lace dress worn by Naomi Campbell. This book examines his style and looks at the making of a collection, featuring the designer's own sketches and specially commissioned behind-the-scenes photographs of the run-up to the Spring/Summer 1999 show.
