What Cameron Silver doesn't know about fashion is not worth
knowing. For fifteen years he has owned Decades, the
renowned vintage boutique on Melrose Avenue, hunting the
world for couture from decades past, matching gorgeous
red-carpet gowns to actresses including Chloe Sevigny and
Michelle Williams, Nicole Kidman and Jennifer Lopez. In
Decades, Silver commits all his sartorial knowledge to paper
in an over-sized, visually stunning book: ten chapters, each
devoted to the iconic looks of a decade. Josephine Baker and
Zelda Fitzgerald show off their legs in the 20s; Jackie O
embodies feminine polish in the 60s; Calvin Klein's
minimalism meets Jacobs' grunge remix in the 90s. This true
fashion bible includes original designer sketches and
patterns and photos of rare couture as styled decades ago
and today. There are contributions from and interviews with
movie stars, models, and style icons, fashion editors and
revered designers. Decades is a fashion treasure: a century
of colorful history to inspire the stylish of today for
years to come.
