For more than 20 years, the fashion powerhouses Grace
Coddington and Didier Malige have lived together with a
menagerie of incorrigible cats. This delightful, giftworthy
book records their relationship through photographs
(Malige's) and drawings (Coddington's) that document the
couple's highly entertaining private and work lives through
the eyes of their feline friends. These include Henri, an
old-school, catnip-addicted, surfing chartreuse; his sister
Coco, a couture-obsessed chartreuse on a sashimi diet; and
her pal Baby, who doesn't quite share Coco's discipline, and
will, sadly, never fit into a sample size. Then there's
Puff, a mixed-up long-hair from Harlem whose
curiosity--anyone for fortune-telling at Dave?--hasn't
killed him yet; and finally Bart, the Persian youngster who
would rather sit on the rooftop terrace than in the front
row. The Catwalk Cats, a visual diary introduced by the
irrepressible Puff, gives us a window into four madcap
seasons in the life of this fabulous furry brigade, with
sections devoted to the Collections, the Campaigns, and, of
course, the Catfights. At once delightful and dishy, it is
both a convincing argument for the fundamental similarities
between felines and fashionistas and a moving meditation on
love and life as a family.
