Product Description

内容説明

The only thing women love more than their shoes is their handbag. Same winning format, same obsessive style as the best-selling title Shoes. Handbags provides a visual feast of design luxury, elegance and witty novelty through over 900 full colour photographs and illustrations, and lively text. Anna Johnson, author of Three Black Skirts brings her charm and style to chapter introductions and captions as she reveals the trade secrets of designers (in great interviews) and capture the "It" bag that defines a period of decade.


Book Description

The Bolide. The Plume. The Birkin-object of lust in Sex in the City. Celebrating the must-have accessory for the fashion conscious woman, HANDBAGS is an obsessive, irresistible visual extravaganza, featuring over 900 full-color photographs of the most luxurious, witty, covetable, talismanic examples of the bagmaker's art and history.

The iconic Hermès Kelly bag, made from first stitch to last by a single craftsperson. Judith Leiber's whimsical minaudières, Moschino's smiley-face bag, Elsa Schiaparelli's surrealist "bird cage," and the ne plus ultra of fashionable purses-the Chanel bag, reinvented for a new generation by Karl Lagerfeld. There are novelty bags, evening bags, sculptural bags, and class acts. Practical leather pochettes to carry a life, and elegant little reticules for nothing more than a credit card and a lipstick. Profiles of famous bagmakers: Jamin Puech, Kate Spade, Carlos Falchi, and the poet of utility, Bonnie Cashin, with her visionary "Cashin Carry" bags for Coach. Plus the anonymous Florentine artisans whose specialist leather workshops sprouted up in the 14th century.

A labor of love written by Anna Johnson, author of Three Black Skirts, HANDBAGS features over 900 bags from collections, museums, and designers around the world, most of them photographed in seductive full-color exclusively for the book. The perfectly matched complement to Shoes, HANDBAGS is about fashion, about desire, about secrecy, craftsmanship, art, and imagination as well as about the changing roles of women-everything that's packed into every important bag. Includes timelines, fascinating captions, and the "It" bags-anyone for a Fendi baguette?

5.0 out of 5 stars 見ごたえ万点(笑), 2005/8/19
この値段にしてこの内容はすごい!さらっとバッグの歴史、定番のスタンダードからユニークなBagまで扱ってる点数が半端じゃないです。それなのにきちっとこのサイズに収まっていてレイアウトもすごく見やすくセンスを感じます(特にこの本のサイズにセンスを感じます。個人的に一番集中して見れるサイズだと思います)。これだけ豊富な量なのに見てる側が混乱をきたしませんでした!(笑)何度も見たくなる、デザインの刺激になる一冊です!

5.0 out of 5 stars うっとり, 2003/9/13
もう見ているだけでうっとりする本です。
昔のとても手の込んだハンドクラフトの世界を感じます。
最近のバッグの少し載っていますが、私は「クラフト感」のあるバッグが良かったですよ。
大変手の込んだ刺繍やビーズワーク・こんな形のバッグ?と驚かされる物まで
職人技や女性のバッグに対する愛着などを感じさせます。

ちょっと内緒にしておきたい本でした。
