内容简介
\
曾经籍籍无名的美国版《Vogue》时装造型师GraceCoddington,目前仍是时装界最安静低调的国际巨星。她令人惊讶地因纪录片《九月刊》(TheSeptember Issue)一炮而红——而影片上映前所有人都认为杂志主编Anna Wintour才是绝对主角。在为自己造型的片子低调而无声地据理力争时,Coddington以其对影片拍摄表现出的最极端的冷漠,反而抢尽了风头。这是一本收罗其作品的美丽的大书。她的造型被普遍认为是时装造型界中实现了最为持续的完美,其封面亦是Michael Roberts为她创作的超赞卡通形象。

Review
\
"Getting the shot is everything in the fashion world, and it's something that Grace Coddington has always been pretty adept at. How adept is best judged by taking a look at her forthcoming book, an outsize tome titled Grace: Thirty Years of Fashion at Vogue, which samples some of the visual treats she has concocted in her 30-plus years as a fashion editor." —New York Magazine

"If [Anna] Wintour is the Pope, Coddington is Michelangelo, trying to paint a fresh version of the Sistine Chapel 12 times a year." —Time Magazine

作者简介
\
Grace's extraordinary talent and fierce dedication to her work as creative director of Vogue have made her an international icon. Known through much of her career only to those who work behind the scenes, she might have remained fashion's best-kept secret were it not for The September Issue, the acclaimed 2009 documentary by R. J. Cutler that turned the publicity-averse Grace into a sudden celebrity.

The daughter of an hotelier in Wales, as a teenager Grace won a modeling competition and moved to London. She enjoyed a lucrative career as one of London's leading models on the 1960s scene. In 1968, following a car accident, she took a job as a junior fashion editor at British Vogue. She quickly established herself as a master stylist and creative director for fashion photography, whether she was transforming studio portraiture into beguiling tableaux, reinterpreting fashion photography classics, or by introducing a sweeping narrative epic style—story telling with clothing that is the hallmark of Grace Coddington's work.
