[EAN: 9781851495702], Neubuch, [PU: ACC Art Books, Woodbridge], Hardcover. The first ever, long overdue survey of the work of John Bates, assembled with his complete co-operation Full of stunning images from the most innovative period of British fashion, from the Youthquake explosion of the 1960s to the Bohemian sophistication of the 1970s John Bates designed Diana Rigg's wardrobe for the part of Emma Peel in cult sixties television classic The Avengers, and is credited by many with the invention of the miniskirt "John Bates came onto the London Fashion scene like a bolt of blue light, trailing sparks of excitement, designing the shortest skirts, the swiftest shapes, the surest colours. He had an unswerving instinct for what was new, modern, cutting edge." Marit Allen Throughout the 1960s and '70s John Bates dominated the British fashion scene with a unique brand of style and innovation. No other designer had such a comprehensive influence on what the UK wore. Diana Rigg wore his designs in The Avengers, and the press went wild. Cilla Black and Dusty Springfield sang in them; Jean Shrimpton, Twiggy and Penelope Tree modelled; David Bailey, Terence Donovan and Helmut Newton photographed. At every level, from shop girl to pop star, debutante and banker's wife, his label Jean Varon offered a must-have dress for any party; short or long, empire line or mini. He gave fashion-conscious women the chance to wear dresses featured extensively in the pages of Vogue, Harpers Bazaar, and Queen Magazine and bridged the gap between High Street retailing and couture like no other. Richard Lester's text is based on detailed interviews with John Bates, covering his entire career in fashion. In addition the book features contributions from Felicity Green, Deirdre McSharry, Brigid Keenan, Barbara Griggs, Sian Phillips and other key figures from the fashion industry, cultural scene and media of the time. AUTHOR: Richard Lester trained with Sotheby's in the early 1990s, having worked for Osborne & Little and Liberty. He divides his time between fine art valuation in the City of London and his vintage clothing business based in Sussex. In 2004 he donated a large collection of John Bates designs to the Fashion Museum in Bath, and assisted in organising the designer's retrospective exhibition at the museum in 2006. The collection now exceeds 500 pieces, and is the largest single designer holding in any UK museum. Marit Allen (1941-2007) was one of the most important names in fashion in the 1960s, working initially for Queen magazine and subsequently for Vogue as editor of 'Young Ideas'. There she played a vital role in promoting young British designers such as John Bates, who designed her spectacular silver wedding outfit in 1966. From the early 1970s she excelled in costume design for film, with credits including Don't Look Now (1973), Eyes Wide Shut (1999) and collaborations with director Ang Lee including Brokeback Mountain (2005). 150 b&w and 110 colour illustrations Throughout the 1960s and 70s John Bates dominated the British fashion scene with a unique brand of style and innovation. No other designer had such a comprehensive influence on what the UK wore. Shipping may be from our Sydney, NSW warehouse or from our UK or US warehouse, depending on stock availability., Books<
