Expedition: Fashion from the Extreme - Mears Patricia - książka
Producent: Thames AND Hudson
Everywhere you look today, from luxurious haute couture to practical ready-to-wear, items such as parkas, puffer coats, and backpacks dominate the fashion landscape. These garments, often crafted from innovative materials like neoprene and Mylar, have become staples in our wardrobes. Yet, the fascinating origins of these widely recognized clothing items and advanced textiles often go unnoticed. Drawing inspiration from the 'heroic era' of polar exploration (1890-1922), as well as extreme mountain climbing, deep sea quests, and outer space adventures, "Expedition" delves into how attire designed for the harshest environments on Earth and beyond has influenced over six decades of imaginative and otherworldly fashion.Richly detailed and beautifully illustrated, the book presents around 150 captivating images. Among these are stunning high-fashion editorials captured by iconic photographers like Irving Penn and Richard Avedon. The book also showcases intriguing artifacts from the permanent collections of The Museum at FIT and the American Museum of Natural History. Additionally, readers will discover rare, unpublished photographs of early exploratory missions housed in the archives of the Explorer's Club in New York.
