Number of Pages: 40Genre: Juvenile NonfictionSub-Genre: Biography & AutobiographyFormat: HardcoverPublisher: HarperCollinsAge Range: 4-8 YearsBook theme: ArtAuthor: Kyo MaclearLanguage: English About the Book A dazzling first-person picture book biography of the life of a daring and different young girl from Rome, Italy, who used art to make fashionEand it was quite marvelous. Back matter included. Full color. Book Synopsis A dazzling picture book biography of one of the world's most influential designers, Elsa Schiaparelli.Elsa dared to be different, and her story will not only dazzle, it will inspire the artist and fashionista in everyone who reads it. This nonfiction picture book is an excellent choice to share during homeschooling, in particular for children ages 4 to 6. It's a fun way to learn to read and as a supplement for activity books for children.By the 1930s Elsa Schiaparelli had captivated the fashion world in Paris, but before that, she was a little girl in Rome who didn't feel pretty at all. Bloom: A Story of Fashion Designer Elsa Schiaparelli is the enchanting story for young readers of how a young girl used her imagination and emerged from plain to extraordinary.As a young girl in Rome, Elsa Schiaparelli (1890-1973) felt "brutta" (ugly) and searched all around her for beauty. Seeing the colors of Rome's flower market one day, young Elsa tried to plant seeds in her ears and nose, hoping to blossom like a flower. All she got was sick, but from that moment, she discovered her own wild imagination.In the 1920 and '30s, influenced by her friends in the surrealist art movement, Schiaparelli created a vast collection of unique fashion designs--hats shaped like shoes, a dress adorned with lobsters, gloves with fingernails, a dress with drawers and so many more. She mixed her own bold colors and invented her own signature shades, including shocking pink.Bloom: A Story of Fashion Designer Elsa Schiaparelli is a stunning and sophisticated picture book biography that follows Schiaparelli's life from birth and childhood to height of success.Kyo Maclear and Julie Morstad (creators of Julia, Child) have gorgeously interpreted Schiaparelli's life. Maclear tells a lyrical story with moments both poignant and humorous and Morstad's elegant imagery saturates the pages with Schiaparelli-inspired shapes and colors.Informative backmatter and suggested further reading included. From the Back Cover Beauty . . . Color . . . Doubts . . . As a little girl in Rome, Elsa Schiaparelli was told she was not pretty. What is beauty? Elsa wondered as she grew older. So she sought out beauty around her and found it everywhere: in the colors and scents of the Rome flower market, in the garden, and in the attic of her family home, buried in a chest of old dresses. She found affection from her dear uncle in Milano."Voliamo," said Uncle Giovanni. "Let's fly!" And Elsa did fly! "Schiap," as she later called herself, developed an artist's eye and imagination. These bloomed in the wildly imaginative dresses, hats, shoes, and jewelry that made her an important name in fashion. Defining beauty on her own creative and rebellious terms was the key to Elsa Schiaparelli's happiness and success--and is still seen today in her legacy of wild imagination. Daring and different, Elsa Schiaparelli used art to make fashion, and it was quite marvelous. Review Quotes "Morstad's vivid mixed-media have an imaginativeness to match Schiaparelli's surrealistic designs (playing with a beloved uncle as a child, she soars amid the stars and planets of the cosmos) and feature splashes of Schiaparelli's trademark shade of pink...[It's] a dramatic tribute worthy of its audacious subject."--Publishers Weekly (starred review)"The duo behind Julia, Child offers a bold first-person biography of designer Elsa Schiaparelli."--Publishers Weekly (starred review)"Little ones who "dare to be different" will be inspired."--Booklist"Morstad's delicate watercolor illustrations do a great job of depicting Schiaparelli's designs, but subtle hints--pink flowers composed of dresses, shoes, and gloves, for instance--emphasize how Schiaparelli's view of the world shaped her artwork."--Booklist"With beautiful, richly colorful, and playful artwork nicely evoking the character of its subject, this lyrical biography of Elsa Schiaparelli offers picture-book readers an enlightening introduction to the wildly inventive and influential fashion designer."--Booklist"Morstad's (When Green Becomes Tomatoes) lush illustrations match Maclear's enlightening narrative... [her] illustrations rise and fall with Elsa's emotional and artistic journey."--Jennifer Oleinik, Shelf Awareness (blog)"Together Maclear and Morstad have created a picture book that, like Elsa's art, is "daring, different, and whole" and that reminds us that "together, we BLOOM and BLOOM.""--Jennifer Oleinik, Shelf Awareness (blog)"In full scenes and vignettes, Morstad's mixed-media paintings capture the lanky, classy panache of Schiap and her designs."--Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books"Using Schiaparelli herself as narrator, this picture-book biography tells the story of her unsettled childhood and rise to premier couturier for a young audience."--Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books

American Fashion Designers Paper Dolls - (Dover Paper Dolls) by Tom Tierney (Paperback)
Number of Pages: 32Genre: Crafts + HobbiesSub-Genre: PapercraftsSeries Title: Dover Paper DollsFormat: PaperbackPublisher: Dover PublicationsAge Range: 9-12 YearsAuthor: Tom TierneyLanguage: English Book Synopsis At the beginning of the twentieth century, Paris and London were the centers of the fashion industry, whereas American designers were regarded as mere "dressmakers." With the arrival of stylists such as Lucile (Lady Duff Gordon), who successfully designed for Hollywood's film industry, and Vera Maxwell, who offered elegant clothes for the working woman, American creativity came to the forefront. By mid-century, the United States dominated world fashion with its panorama of "name" designers. Noteworthy styles of the twentieth century featured in Tom Tierney's paper doll collection include Carl Jantzen's innovative elasticized swimsuit, Nettie Rosenstein's "little black dress," Anne Klein's modern separates, Halston's "rich uniform," Calvin Klein's hugely successful sportswear, Ralph Lauren's classic American elegance, and Donna Karan's sensuous styles for the businesswoman. Two dolls, with a stunning wardrobe of casual clothes, cocktail dresses, and elegant evening gowns, model the creations of 32 American designers of the twentieth century, among them Mainbocher, Adele Simpson, Oscar de la Renta, Normal Norell, Pauline Trigère, Adolfo, Bill Blass, Geoffry Beene, Carolina Herrera, Isaac Mizrahi, and Vera Wang. A delight for paper doll lovers of all ages, this attractive book will also appeal to collectors and students of fashion and costume design. About the Author One of the leading authorities on fashion history, Tom Tierney created over 150 paper doll books for Dover Publications. With subjects ranging from U.S. Presidents to popular movie stars, Mr. Tierney's books are famous for being carefully researched and meticulously rendered.
