AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Fiorucci The book, EO 1980
215x280mm, 142 pages.
The story of the fashion brand that helped spread postmodernism into popular culture in the early 80s. From 1976 to 1984, Fiorucci opened an astonishing new wave boutique on 59th Street in Manhattan. It looked like Debbie Harry’s dream wardrobe: fluorescent jumpsuits, parachute pants, high-heeled sneakers, and eccentric disco clothing from Italy. It was the go-to address for Madonna’s rubber bracelets; Warhol launched Interview magazine there during an event, and Klaus Nomi performed in the storefront window. It was the fusion of art and fashion, in the midst of the disco era. An excellent-condition copy, with an illustrated cover. It is filled with Fiorucci’s famous graphics and anecdotes from its golden age, a true immersion in the ambience of Studio 54 in broad daylight. A celebration of Fiorucci’s fashion and splendor.
