Beskrivning
Some mothers are punk. Others are hippies, chic power dressers or free-spirited bohemians. Many resist labels altogether. These richly illustrated pages offer a joyful celebration of our mothers’ clothes and how their style choices – practical, political or deeply personal – left a lasting imprint on the culture around us.Cool Mothers: An Appreciation of Style places maternal style exactly where it belongs: at the centre of fashion history. A jacket, a handbag, a hairclip, a bracelet worn every day for decades… these details define our mothers as women of their time, subtly revealing the person beyond the role of motherhood, what they resisted, what they embraced, and how they balanced selfhood with responsibility.Perfect for mothers, fashion lovers and anyone interested in the rich intersection of motherhood, identity and dress. Featuring such distinctly stylish mothers as Angela Missoni, Elizabeth Taylor, Josephine Baker, Princess Diana, Vivienne Westwood, Courtney Love and many others.

Recensioner i media

"In her new book, Terry Newman explores how some of fashion's most recognizable women maintained their individuality, ambition and personal style through motherhood.""While Lila Moss refers to dipping into her supermodel mother’s drawer to steal old rock T-shirts with a Rolling Stones one being a favorite, this illustrated page-turner is more of a celebration of mothers’ style than a how-to tutorial. The featured mothers’ personal style choices relay individualism, assuredness and confidence in their kin, Newman said in a recent interview. While the unlikely fashion trend of wearing a false bump called “The Pad” took hold in 1793 and Jeanne Lanvin introduced the mommy-and-me look in 1897, Newman’s exploration of mothers’ coolness is definitively more contemporary. Adroit at delving into what wardrobes reveal about a person, Newman has published other books about Harry Styles, BTS and Marilyn Monroe." - WWD (Women's Wear Daily)
