The first book on the highly influential French fashion designer renowned for her rock n romantic style and for reinvigorating the house of Chloé. Martine Sitbon has become an icon among designers and fashionistas, earning her praise from Karl Lagerfeld as being "the only living French designer." Handpicked to breathe new life into Chloé in the mid-1980s, and the first woman to be named designer at the house, while simultaneously working on her own ready-to-wear label, Sitbon has been at the helm of high fashion for decades. Martine Sitbon, sumptuously designed by longtime collaborator Marc Ascoli, deftly illustrates the looks that have built Sitbon s reputation including her separates, draped and tucked organza minis, smart trenches, and sexy rocker-girl pieces and shows how her style has made her not only a woman s designer, but a designer s designer, having spent years mentoring such respected tastemakers as Phoebe Philo and Isabel Marant. With never-before-seen sketches and photographs, this book allows readers to gain a better understanding of the designer s personal universe and inspirations that have until now been largely hidden from view.

"The book is filled with images by the likes of Nick Knight, David Sims, and Craig McDean, among many others, as well as archive pieces and more intimate Polaroids. And while Sitbon stressed that the fashion industry is a very different place now than it was in 1986 when she debuted her first collection, she hopes Alternative Vision will remind its readers of the beauty of research and creative exploration."
