Sublime elegance : the timeless charm of evening gowns / Maria Maccari. - 240 pages : illustrations (colour) ; 30 cm

Giorgio Armani said 'Elegance is not about being noticed, it's about being remembered.' And what is more memorable than a beautifull evening dress. The evening gown has undergone many transformations and this book follows its evolution, from the 1920s to the present day. Highlighting the inextricalbe link between film and fashion, the book looks at some of the most well remembered dresses from films and the red carpet, including Gwyneth Paltrow's pink ballgown from the 1994 oscars and Givenchy's little black dress from 'Breakfast at Tiffany's.'
