Celebrating Fashion’s Greats

Earlier this month I had the honour of co-hosting the Met Gala in New York. It’s the biggest night of the fashion calendar and always a spectacular occasion. This year’s event was in honour of Karl Lagerfeld, one of fashion’s most influential designers, who passed away in 2019 after a career spanning seven decades – most famously as creative director of Chanel. The event inspired me to learn more about the glamour and history of the fashion industry, and the people who help shape it. So here are five fashion books I’ve added to my (ever-expanding) reading list...

  1. Chanel And Her World, Edmonde Charles-Roux
  2. Nadine Ijewere: Our Own Selves, Nadine Ijewere
  3. Grace: A Memoir, Grace Coddington
  4. Alexander McQueen: Blood Beneath The Skin, Andrew Wilson
