His autobiography tells the story of the meteoric rise of a draper's son to the \"King of Fashion.\" From his humble Parisian childhood, to his debut as a couturier, to his experiences during World War I, Poiret reveals all in this captivating tale, first published in 1931. His artistic flair, coupled with his remarkable and highly original cutting skills, enabled him to translate the spirit of Art Deco into revolutionary garments, and his memoirs bring this astonishing period to life. An astute businessman, Poiret describes the expansion of his fashion empire to encompass interior decor and the first designer perfume and evocatively recounts his extravagant parties, where guests paraded in his latest creations. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Paul Poiret\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1851779612\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781851779611\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Victoria \u0026amp; Albert Museum\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/18\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 128\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.55lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.90h x 5.10w x 0.80d","brand":"Paul Poiret","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44042437492991,"sku":"9781851779611","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_41e69bb7-d1de-49a6-9690-fb45f2303df5.jpg?v=1684961517","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/king-of-fashion-paul-poiret-9781851779611","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
