La Passion Du Mouvement L’Épopée Fusalp
30.00 €
Icon-Icon Opinion :
A book that retraces the FUSALP epic. Fusalp is first and foremost the story of a duo of tailors from Annecy – Georges Ribola and René Veyrat; two experts who combined their talents to revolutionize the know-how of winter sportswear. It is then the story of an aesthetic revolution. The couple succeeded in creating clean, body-hugging lines from technical materials that were not always easy to handle. The spindle was born, along with the chic and slender silhouette of skiers. Gone is the look of the Michelin man. Hello to the tapered silhouette.

Description :The triumph of an eternal house, seventy years after its spectacular first show.
On February 12, 1947, a young house named after its founder, Christian Dior, presented a spring-summer haute couture collection in a Paris still in the grip of winter cold. The creations were shown in a salon freshly painted in dove gray at 30 Avenue Montaigne, a historic and mythical address. This is the novelty that Dior symbolizes for fashion in general, and for Paris in particular. These codes, this visual language have fascinated the many successors of the designer: Yves Saint Laurent, Marc Bohan, Gianfranco Ferré, but especially John Galliano, and since 2017 Maria Grazia Chiuri. Their task has been, season after season, to find a new voice through the vocabulary of Dior.
