Romantic, cool and glamorous, the Chloé woman embodies the bohemian femininity that the fashion house has become known for.

From the carefree romanticism of their relaxed silhouettes to their cult status leather goods, Chloé has appealed to the modern woman since its inception in 1952. Founded by Gaby Aghion, who introduced the revolutionary concept of ready-to-wear, the maison has since been steered by legendary designers including Karl Lagerfeld, Phoebe Philo and Stella McCartney.

Including carefully curated images of Chloé's most sought-after pieces as well as captivating text, Little Book of Chloé tells the story behind an iconic fashion house from its beginnings in Paris through to its continued status as the It-girl design house today.

Through stunning photographs and expert text, Little Book of Fendi tells the story of one of Italy's oldest fashion dynasties, from the Fendi sisters, early days of fur and Dolce Vita period, to Karl Lagerfeld, Kim Jones and a global empire that remains as deeply embedded in popular culture as it ever was.

The American department a palace of consumption that epitomized modern consumerism. Every wish could be met under one roof – afternoon tea, a stroll through the latest fashions, a wedding (or funeral) planned. It was a place where women, shopper and shopgirl alike, could stake out a newfound independence. Whether in New York or Chicago or on Main Street, USA, men owned the buildings, but inside, women ruled.

In this hothouse atmosphere, three women rose to the top. Hortense Odlum of Bonwit Teller, Dorothy Shaver of Lord & Taylor, and Geraldine Stutz of Henri Bendel's took risks, innovated and competed as very different kinds of career women, forging new paths for the women who followed in their footsteps. In the 1930s, Hortense came to her husband's department store as a housewife tasked with attracting more shoppers like herself, and wound up running the company. Dorothy championed American designers during World War II--before which US fashions were almost exclusively Parisian copies--and beyond, becoming the first businesswoman to earn a salary of more than $1.5 million. And Geraldine re-invented the look of the modern department store in the 1960s, and had a preternatural sense for trends, inspiring a devoted following of ultra-chic shoppers as well as decades of copycats.

In When Women Ran Fifth Avenue, journalist Julie Satow draws back the curtain on three American women who made twentieth-century department stores a mecca for women of every age, social class, and ambition. This stylish account, rich with personal drama and trade secrets, captures the department store in all its glitz, decadence, and fun, and showcases the women who made that beautifully curated world go round.

  • The best of the international fashion scene from the last year
  • Impressive images of the fashion series, covers and campaigns, accompanied by expert assessment
  • Top-class jury
  • A unique overview of the global fashion year



The international fashion world is creative, expressive and impressive. And it is always fast moving. This book is devoted to the best fashion series and photos of the international fashion world of 2022.

A jury of international experts selects from a worldwide selection of the best editorials, covers and campaigns and makes the awards. Additionally, the creative people behind the scenes, such as photographers, stylists, models and make-up artists, are presented in detail. The Fashion Yearbook 2023 comprehensively includes the fashion highlights and their actors in an impressive illustrated book and is thus a unique standard work in the fashion industry.

A crystal-ball look into tomorrow's wardrobe: conscious, fair, slow, upcycled, biointelligent, digital ... the fashion industry is undergoing some radical reimagining.

What will you be wearing tomorrow? Will your jacket have been grown in a lab, or your jeans coloured using bacteria? How will you access that new shirt you've got your eye on? Will we still have shops? What does the future of work look like for the people who make our garments?

The current fashion system is wasteful, environmentally harmful and exploitative. And, if we carry on as we do now, it could account for a quarter of global emissions by 2050. But creative thinkers are dreaming up new ways to craft our sartorial identities that don't wreck the planet.

Vogue Australia's first sustainability editor, Clare Press, introduces us to the fascinating innovators who are redesigning fashion from the ground up and changing it in the most fundamental ways.

'Wear Next is an exciting ode to a regenerative fashion future. To truly emerge from the current "planetary emergency", we need all hands on deck and convincing narratives for change across all sectors, and socio-economic-political systems. Through honest storytelling and real-world experiences, Clare Press does just that - and reminds us once again that we have the power to choose the future we want.' - Sandrine Dixson-Declève, Co-President, The Club of Rome.
