Описание: Through 100 groundbreaking dresses, The Dress traces the past and present influences and reinterpretations in clothing design. From the Victorian crinoline to Vivienne Westwood's mini-crini of 1985, from Herve Leger's 1985 bandage dress to Christopher Kane's 2006 neon version, each landmark dress gives examples of how fashion ideas have been reborn and referenced throughout time by designers. By making connections between designers and across decades, the book allows the reader to discover the breadth of influence in this field, the magic of inspired originality from fashion designers and an overview of fashion history. From beaded and bias-cut to frou-frou to corseted, Chanel to Yves Saint Laurent, laced to bustled, each dress tells a fashion story through anecdotes and analysis, with historic and cross-cultural references, beautiful imagery, and immaculate referencing.

Описание:

There is no wall separating the United States from Canada. A river marks the border between Detroit Michigan and Windsor Ontario. The bridge and tunnel that link the two cities make up the busiest international crossings in North America.

Together, they once owned bragging rights as the automotive capital of the world. Both known as blue collar municipalities, Detroit and Windsor have more than the production of automobiles in common. Murder.

The American metropolis once led the nation in killings per capita. Although a fraction of its neighbor's size, Windsor has its share of homicides.

Border City Chronicles is a collection of three Norm Strom crime fiction stories, all tales of murder. Baby Shay and Designated Hitters take place in two gritty Windsor neighborhoods. Knock-Out happens in the bowels of Detroit.

Follow Norm Strom, his informants and fellow cops, while they slip into the underbellies of the motor cities to seek justice for their victims of homicide.
