1954012152NY: E. P. Dutton 1954. 1st Edition. Hardcover. Near Fine/Very Good. Memoir of the Italian-born priestess of fashion Else Schiaperelli 1890- 1973 known chicly as "Schiap". All the swells entered her orbit - Lady Mendle Garbo Gloria Swanson Picasso Dali et al. Schiap's inscription - in her broad flowing almost indecipherable script in brown ink on the free front endpaper - indeed harkens back to a swell time: "To Kay Lawrence for a delightful hour at 21 N.Y. Elsa Schiaperlli" referring presumably to cocktails at 21 Club on 52nd Street in Manhattan which fell victim to the Covid economy in mid December 2020. Kay Lawrence was a Manhattan-based journalist perhaps on assignment for the publication of Schiap's book. She served as President of the Newswomen's Club of New York from 1960-61. Black cloth covers have a moderately worn lower right corner otherwise unblemished with shocking pink stamped titles front and spine. In unclipped dustjacket with light wear spine tips and edges here and there. Book shows little if any signs of having been read. Illustrated with b&w photographs. THE collectible copy. E. P.

19549128<p>New York: E. P. Dutton & Co. 1954. First edition. Octavo. 255pp. 'Since most women do not know themselves they should try and do so.' This is surrealist fashion designer and empire builder Elsa Schiaparelli's triumphant memoir and celebration of her extraordinary life told with all the aplomb and feist she is known for. Witty wild and energetically dishy Schiaparelli begins the book with a foreword in which she introduces herself as a 'complex woman'. "If she is charming she can also be the most hateful person in the world. She is aware of this but cannot help it."</p><p>Schiaparelli makes an unusual choice to begin her life's narrative from a bird's eye view a cinematic entrance before zooming in in the first pages of her christening and naming in an Italian church and introduction to her parents. She calls herself "Schiap" in the book as she did in life and writes herself in a self-ironical third person as well as first switching smoothly between the person and the persona.</p><p>Readers are taken through her childhood her coming of age her education and choices that led her to near-poverty when she ended up in New York in 1928 to launch her knitwear line which she grew into the surrealist and shocking pink phenomenon that was The House of Schiaparelli. Along the way she shares her encounters with Greta Garbo Joan Crawford Picasso Anita Loos Katherine Hepburn and Dali among others.</p><p>A must-have for followers of fashion. Ends with 12 commandments for women!</p><p>Illustrated with colour and black & white plates. Spectacular condition slightest wear uncommon to find this particular jacket in near fine condition - shocking even!</p> E. P. Dutton & Co.
