Excess: Fashion And The Underground In The '80s

Binding is solid and square, text/interior is clean and free of marking of any kind. Publisher's sticker on front. A great many full page color prints. 463 pages. Producing a book on fashion in the 1980s is not merely a question of immortalizing one of the most feverish periods of invention, creativity, and variety in our recent history. It also means providing a window on the increasingly pervasive advance of show-business society, and on the origins of the designer "total living" environment in which we are now permanently submerged. Ralph Lauren pillowcases, anyone? How about a sip of Absolut from my Calvin Klein Home champagne glasses? ~Excess: Fashion and the Underground in the 80s chronicles the achievements of the fashion establishment in Italy and the rest of the world via its protagonists and trends. It considers the who, what, where, when, and why of an industry that has become an economic phenomenon, with enormous influence on global culture and communication. It catalogues a world in which fashions by Armani, Versace, Valentino, Gianfranco Ferr, Fendi, Missoni, Moschino, Dolce & Gabbana, Fiorucci, Thierry Mugler, Jean Paul Gaultier, Vivienne Westwood, Katherine Hamnett, Azzedine Alaa, Calvin Klein, and John Galliano appear in magazines like Vogue, Elle, Donna, Mondo Uomo, Harpers Bazaar, The Face, i-D, Interview, Vanity Fair, GQ, and Visionaire. It features work by 80s hotshot artists like Helmut Newton, Bruce Weber, Cindy Sherman, Nan Goldin, Andy Warhol, Jenny Holzer, Robert Mapplethorpe, Barbara Kruger, Gilbert & George, Pierre et Gilles, and Leigh Bowery.~Empirically organized as an index, Excess offers an indispensable point of reference for fashionistas, critics, and students. Rather than operating chronologically, it functions thematically, under such categories as Career Women, Sexy Women, American Gigolo, Night Clubbing, Wild Boys, Yuppies, and Graffiti. A special section curated by Peter de Potter is dedicated to the Neo 80s, featuring fashions by Jeremy Scott, Louis Vuitton, Berhard Willhelm, Balenciaga, Veronique Branquinho, and Bottega Veneta, as seen in the pages of Butt, Dazed & Confused, SleazeNation, Spin, Self Service, and Another Magazine. Additionally included are a series of appendices--equally balanced between mainstream and underground--which catalogue the new professions, new words, and new fashions.

Catherine Douglas (nee Hyde), Duchess of Queensberry and Dover (1701-1777), aristocratic beauty and literary patron [Jonathan ShBiblio.com

Catherine Douglas née Hyde Duchess of Queensberry and Dover Autograph Letter Signed 'To the Revd: Doctor Shipley Canon of Xt: Church Oxford by way of London'.

6141Ambresbury Amesbury; 22 January 13 February 1755. 4to: 3 pp. Bifolium. On neatly-repaired aged paper with archival paper covering the two inner pages. Fifty-four lines of text all clear and entire. Remains of black wax seal with crest on verso of second leaf which carries the address and is docketed 'Maragna Mohammed'. A long letter in two parts the second part beginning on the verso of the first leaf which is headed 'now Febry: 13'. A significant letter to an important eighteenth-century figure; written in unusually honest and forthright terms and casting light on the Duchess's dejected state of mind in the wake of the great tragedy of her life the suicide of her son Henry Lord Drumlanrig; and in the months preceding the death from tuberculosis of her only other son Charles. Following what seems to have been a falling-out between the two the Duchess begins by assuring Shipley that she is 'mighty glad of his letter now' and that she is 'much relieved from the many & great anxietys' he 'could not possibly be exempted from' since she and her husband 'had the pleasure of his company so substantially interrupted'. 'The reason of yr: silence was too plain: it was perfectly understood: & I hope so was my silence which should not have continued so long if I could have been inspired with any thought or chain of thoughts capable to relax yr: mind or to have addministed sic wholesum food for it'. She hopes his 'intended journey' will do him good and wishes that the Queensbury's 'might have been directly in his road' and that frost 'might have detained him as long as he might properly have been detained'. Continuing on 13 February she is 'asham'd to find my self & <mine> moulderd into an other month since the last page began'. Her epistles often suffer 'from a Sort of Subsideningness sic which arises from a consciousness that my writing or not signifies little & therefore from a parcel of fagg ends or remnants of Pride or Spirit'. She 'will not venture into the matter of Shipley's partiallity sic farther than to declare that according to my opinion partialty sic is a viertue neither partiallity sic or prejudice ever did exist without cause more or less & are the <smack> & flame from some actuall matter'. Regarding a 'freind' of Shipley's her 'personall quarrell' is that he has 'vexd & Disappointed' him. Ends in the hope that Shipley's 'litte ones' are well. 'The good & bad weather ingross as by turns but the incessant Storms of yesterday & to day makes one dread for every Ship freind or enemee'. Letters by her rarely come on the market. Ambresbury [Amesbury]; 22 January [13 February] 1755. unknown
