Book excerpt: In this six-eBook bind-up of the complete On the Runway series from bestselling author Melody Carlson, sisters Paige and Erin Forrester find themselves traveling the world for their fashion TV show … but their very different personalities often make each episode an adventure in itself. Contains: Premiere: Paige has always been outgoing and fashion-obsessed, while her sister, Erin, would rather stay behind a camera in comfy jeans and a tee. But after Paige’s fashion “helps” find their way onto the local news, the sisters’ passions collide when they are offered their own fashion TV show. It soon becomes clear this unlikely partnership has plenty of room for success—and even more for failure. Catwalk: The high ratings of the sisters’ On the Runway show lands them a ticket to New York Fashion Week. Paige is determined to get the attention of top designers, but her newfound fame threatens to go to her head. Meanwhile, Erin wants to help promote the work of eco designers, but struggles to be taken seriously. Rendezvous: Paige and Erin are ready to take their show on location to Paris. Unfortunately, it doesn’t take long for their intentions to get lost in translation. An unplanned week of filming at a model’s family estate leads to romance, jealousy, and surprises. Spotlight: When Paige and Erin head to London, both get a reception to remember. Bombarded by crazed fans and the interrogations of the infamous British paparazzi, the sisters know that their lives have changed—big time. Star treatment has its perks, but before long both girls are stretched to a breaking point. Glamour: Paige’s engagement to designer Dylan Marceau shocks the fashion world. Although Paige appears to be happy, Erin wonders if it’s really just a desire for attention and publicity. At the same time, Erin is feeling pressure from her ex, Blake, to take their friendship to a romantic level. As the sisters prepare to film in the Bahamas, they also must deal with growing turmoil on set. Ciao: A trip to Milan might be the break both Paige and Erin need, but things only seem to get more complicated once they land in Italy. Paige’s on-again, off-again romance with Dylan, combined with a new director for On the Runway, leaves Erin with more work on the show. Just when Erin can’t take any more, she discovers a secret that could crush Paige. And doing the right thing could not only hurt her sister, it might end their show for good.

Book excerpt: A stunning work on contemporary fashion spectacles, showcasing the most innovative, creative, and artistic high-fashion runway shows of the last twenty years. In recent years, as fashion shows have become a part of our collective imagination and an important part of contemporary culture, blockbuster productions have redefined the runway show as a form of entertainment and creativity on par with the clothes themselves. This book focuses on designers for whom fashion and the mode of presenting it have held equal significance: Alexander McQueen, Martin Margiela, Hussein Chalayan, Viktor & Rolf, Marc Jacobs, Karl Lagerfeld at Chanel, Raf Simons, Thom Browne, and Imitation of Christ, among them. From the performance art spectacles of the first Alexander McQueen collections in the mid-1990s and the high-art concept shows of Hussein Chalayan in the late 1990s to the lavish beauty of Chanel haute couture in 2012, author Alix Browne explores the highest pinnacles of fashion today. Runway gives the reader full access to the theatrical and creative aspects of the production, in both intimate, little-seen runway shows from the pre-Internet era—many of the photographs here have never been published before—as well as major productions with elaborate sets and full-blown narrative. A thrilling, immersive, and inspiring look into the wide-ranging creativity of contemporary fashion, Runway is the most thorough book available on the subject. Featuring the most innovative fashion designers of the last twenty years, this book is a must for lovers of fashion and culture.

Book excerpt: Sliding into the Rabbit Hole… Would She Ever Return? On the surface, Alice Laxton seems no different from any other college girl: bright, inquisitive, excited about the life ahead of her. But for years, a genetic time bomb has been ticking away. Because of Alice’s near-genius intelligence, teachers and counselors have always made excuses for her “little idiosyncrasies.” But during a stress-filled senior year at college, a new world of voices, visions, and unexplainable “knowledge” causes Alice to begin to lose her grip on reality. As Alice’s schizophrenia progresses, she experiences a disturbing religious “awakening,” believing that God and angels and demons are speaking to her. When others attempt to intervene, Alice is subjected to a wide range of “treatments” even more frightening and painful than her illness. Powerfully raw and brutally honest, Finding Alice is a story of individual suffering and hope, a family’s shared ordeal, and a search for true mental and spiritual healing.

Download or read book Red White and Blue on the Runway written by Kimberly Chrisman-Campbell and published by Kent State University. This book was released on 2022-03-22 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A behind-the-scenes look at the only fashion show held at the White House and the intersections of fashion and politics On February 29, 1968, the White House hosted its first--and only--fashion show. At the time, the patriotic event was lauded by the press, and many predicted it would become an annual occasion, especially since fashion had grown to become the fourth largest industry in the United States, employing 1.4 million Americans, more than 80 percent of them women. But the social and political turmoil of that particular year--from the Vietnam War, the civil rights movement, and the assassinations of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and Senator Robert F. Kennedy--cast a shadow over the festivities. Using eyewitness accounts as well as carefully preserved records, artifacts, and previously unpublished images, Red, White, and Blue on the Runway re-creates the once-in-a-lifetime event and explores the reasons why the first White House fashion show was destined to be the last. The politics of fashion touched everyone involved in this landmark occasion in American fashion history, from hostess Lady Bird Johnson and the Johnson daughters to the designers, including Bill Blass, Geoffrey Beene, Mollie Parnis, and Oscar de la Renta, as well as the models and guests. Those guests included the wives of governors and of President Johnson's Cabinet, in addition to dozens of fashion designers and prominent journalists who reported on the event. In our own turbulent political climate, Red, White, and Blue on the Runway takes us back to an equally tense time, providing a unique historical perspective on themes of fashion, politics, protest, and image-making that are immediately relevant today.
