Eyewear designer Moss Lipow has scoured eBay, auction houses, yard sales and flea markets around the world to build his collection of binoculars and photographs. This book, which traces the history of eyewear over the past millennium, features the most interesting items in this collection, as well as models owned by other eyewear enthusiasts. Considering the variety of these objects – prehistoric whalebone snow goggles, riveted wooden binoculars worn by Italian clergy, medieval bezicles, lorgnettes favored by 19th century dandies, pince-nez and monocles, the first tinted aviator’s glasses of the 20th century, and plastic-framed glasses à la Godard – it is clear that eyewear has undergone an exciting evolution; What was once a practical and often DIY accessory has become a multi-billion euro global industry, catering to those with vision problems and fashion enthusiasts. This richly illustrated book is enhanced by essays drawn from a wide variety of sources, including texts, old catalogs and magazines, and out-of-print publications.
More than 1,000 examples of eyewear, each more extravagant than the last.

Publication Date: October 2011
An extraordinary monograph created by Christian Louboutin, renowned for his beautifully crafted handmade shoes, in particular his elegantly sexy stilettos. This stunning volume, with a fanciful and intricate pop-up, an elaborate foldout cover, and dramatic still-life photography, evokes the artistry and theatricality of Louboutin’s shoe designs. Celebrated for his vertiginously high stilettos with their signature lacquer-red soles, Louboutin has achieved cult status with celebrities as well as fashionistas. His eclectic and exotic designs, often incorporating feathers, beads, and sequins, are a constant and dramatic presence on the red carpet and in nightclubs and restaurants the world over. Louboutin’s first book, this monograph highlights the extraordinary range of his couture, from his iconic and glamorous creations to his fetishistic pieces, including his collaborations with David Lynch, meant more for the bedroom than the street. New photography captures Louboutin’s artistic sensibilities, while an in-depth interview reveals Louboutin’s life, travels, and inspirations, presenting a very personal look at the man behind the shoes. A work of art in itself, with a five-piece foldout binding and a pop-up, Christian Louboutin is an enticing and revelatory look at the most important luxury shoe designer of our day. The book is divided into six chapters. The first chapter covers Louboutin’s biography, his start as a designer from his work for Chanel and Yves Saint Laurent to his first boutique in 1992, and his early creations and influences illustrated with many never-seen-before photos from his personal archives; chapter two features the Louboutin boutiques around the world showcasing the varied and extravagant interior designs and displays; chapter three is “20 years of design” and highlights his shoe designs from over the years with all-new still-life photography, as well as editorial art; chapter four features the spectacular interiors of Louboutin’s homes in Paris and Luxor, Egypt, and behind-the-scenes shots from his studios and workshops; chapter five focuses on his creative collaborations with David Lynch, of a series called “Fetish,” of limited-edition shoes by Louboutin and limited-edition photos by Lynch; chapter six is a complete catalogue raisonne of his work, with photos of all 120 shoe designs.
