This two volume encyclopedia, edited by i-D creator Terry Jones, focusses on a hundred contemporary fashion designers that are shaping the styles of tomorrow.
It's a very heavy, beautiful and surprisingly affordable set of books with interviews and iconic pictures that tell us more about designers take on style, fashion, aesthetics and work. What I love about books like these is that you get a sense of designers personality, which I think is essential in understanding their collections ("I'd describe my work as Frankenstein and Garbo, falling in love in a leather bar" - Rick Owens).

Already saw them at the Versace Preshopping in Munich,
I already have one about the 'bigger' designers - are there lot of 'new' ones? Like the German Augustin Teboul? :)
Love & a happy day!

I have those too, but I'm not too pleased with it. I think the quality is on the low side (which may have something to do with the price), the pictures are sometimes blurry and a little random from time to time and the credits haven't been properly edited. That said, it's still a really pretty book to look in and have on your bookshelves!
