Those who were & those who were not Disaster Lobbyists will find this book convincing, stimulating & revealing ...."

Nice Clean Gift Giving quality ... 256 pages with bibliography, index + illustrated with Photographs ... Big beautiful book, 9 x 11" size ... Lavishly illustrated with B&W and full color illustrations of original 1960's fashion icons ... Radical Rags tells the story of the revolutionary - and voluptuary - fashions that accompanied, expressed, and broadcast the social, political, and cultural excitement of the decade of the 1960s ... Full of nostalgia, this visually dazzling popular history records what was worn and by whom, commemorating fashion icons from Jacqueline Kennedy to Janis Joplin ... More than that, it unfolds the creation of a radical fashion industry from Madison Avenue which for the decade overthrew the fashion czars of Europe and Seventh Avenue ... Author Joel Lobenthal richly evokes the exhilarating cultural contexts in which the styles of the sixties were born: the love-ins of Haight-Ashbury, the shoebox boutiques of Carnaby Street, the mixed-media discotheques of Manhattan, the jet-set parties of the Beautiful People, the streets of America ... Ten chapters focus on fashion nerve centers like London, New York, Paris, Rome, the West Coast; on pop social movements, including those of the Mods, Rockers, and Hippies; on the culture of drugs, love and sex; on the world of radical chic; on the key designers, including Betsey Johnson, Tiger Morse, Rudi Gernreich, Pierre Cardin, Paco Rabanne, Yves St. Laurent, Zandra Rhodes, Mary Quant, Emilio Pucci, Sonia Rykiel, Bill Blass; on boutiques like Biba, Paraphernalia, Knobkerry, Holly's Harp, Granny Takes a Trip, Mr. Fish, and Mary Quant 's Bazaar; and on model / celebrities, including Twiggy, Veruschka, Marisa Berenson, Jean Shrimpton, Lauren Hutton, Pilar Crespi, and Baby Jane Holzer ... Radical Rags is the product of ten years of research, including scores of exclusive interviews ... Lobenthal has uncovered a wealth of photographs and other materials from the private files of designers, models, and photographers in Europe and the United States ... Featured photographers include Richard Avedon, Helmut Newton, William Claxton, David Bailey, and Clive Arrowsmith ... Many of the photographs are published here for the first time ... Pictured on the front cover is model Lauren Huttonin Betsey Johnson's slip dree of soft plastic with do-it-yourself stick-ons of sequins sheeting material, spring 1966, vinyl shoes by Herbert Levine ... Back cover: Peggy Moffitt in a Cardin sequinned couture evening dress, 1966 ... A retro treasure trove, Radical Rags is vital reading not only for students of fashion and popular culture, but for everyone with passionate memories of the sixties - and for those who wish they had been there ... for lovers of Fashion and Music memorabilia alike .... " Radical Rags - Fashions of the Sixties " ... by Joel Lobenthal ... published by Abbeville Press, New York ... 1990 softcover ... ***. Near New .
