A superb collection of b/w photographs presented in essay format by influential fashion photographer Irving Penn. Best known for his classically elegant visual style and his long association with Vogue magazine, these photographs feature Paris fashions that appeared in Vreeland's exhibition "The Tens, The Twenties, The Thirties: Inventive Clothes/ 1909-1939" at the The Metropolitan Museum's Costume Institute, Dec. 14, 1973-May, 1974. The work of Paul Poiret, Madeleine Vionnet, Callot, Molyneux, Paquin, Coco Chanel and Elsa Schiaparelli are some of early 20th century French couture masters included in this look at fashion as it evolved from the Belle Epoque into the modern era, just before WWII. From the dust jacket: "The fashions of the 1910s, 1920s and 1930s were as glorious as they were socially reflective. Inspired by the exhibit organized by Diana Vreeland for the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Irving Penn's masterly picture essay captures the flavor of the times as well as literal details of design. Because of her participation in and astute observation of, the scene in which these fashions were born, Diana Vreeland in her text is able to provide a unique glimpse into the lives of each of the couturiers, and her captions to Penn's sensitive photographs are rich in detail. From the straight-line creations of Paul Poiret to the classically modern work of Gabrielle Chanel and the fanciful innovations of Elsa Schiaparelli, Penn has included the most remarkable material─designs that provided the principles from which all fashion to follow would grow."

Obsessed with This Soap & Lotion!
This hand wash and lotion set smells lovely and feels great on my skin. The hand wash gently cleans without drying, and the lotion leaves my hands soft and smooth all day.

Defective/broken nozzles!!!
I love this company and product but I ordered a set and the lotion nozzle was defective - Spins but doesn’t open. I ordered a replacement and the lotion nozzle is defective AGAIN and the soap nozzle is cracked and broken. Very disappointed. This is not the sellers fault as the product comes wrapped from the manufacturer. But beware.

Pumps do not work at all
I planned on replacing the pumps with something more lux anyways, but if you don’t plan on doing that, do not buy these. The pumps do not work at all. They’re completely defective. Insane these don’t go through better quality control for how much they cost.

BEST HAND SOAP!!
Such a great, clean scent and looks so chic on my bathroom counter! I was struggling with my hands drying out from hand sanitizers and other hand washes and have not had this issue what so ever. I will absolutely be repurchasing.

Every bathroom needs these!
Style: Sprays + Candle
I received two small bottles of this last Christmas as a stocking stuffer from a friend. My husband and I used them and were quite impressed. I ordered three more bottles for each bathroom. I initially thought these were more of a "joke" for guests visiting but soon realized these are the real deal. My husband isn't much into these type of things and leaves them up to me but now he tells me when I need to order more. They make the bathroom smells so fresh and the scent lasts a long time covering up any unpleasant odors. I spray them regardless after I clean our bathrooms as they make my bathrooms feel so "clean" and they are a decent size. No leaking....just a simple couple of sprays and the bathrooms smells great. I love all of the products from this line and use them frequently. Nice seller too. Ships quickly and good packaging. These are definitely worth buying!
