Vera Wang On Weddings by Vera Wang Large Hardcover Book

About the Item

Vera Wang On Weddings by Vera Wang Large Hardcover Book. In this superbly produced volume by Callaway Editions, Ltd.; the world′s most successful bridal gown designer shares her thoughts and vision on weddings. Culled from years of experience in the wedding business, Vera Wang offers ideas on every aspect of the wedding day from invitations to flowers, from cakes to attendants. Of course, a wedding book by Vera Wang wouldn′t be complete without detail on the bride′s gown. She explains how to select the right neckline, construction, length, bodice, and waistline for each bride′s figure; what fabrics are appropriate for certain times of day; how to choose a headpiece, and much more. First Edition. 2000. Book is in very good condition; the glassine dust jacket is in good plus condition. Book is warmly inscribed, “Dear Bee, A copy of my “Wedding Book”! I hope you enjoy looking at it. Love, Vera.” [The Bee is most likely Bee Shaffer whose mother Anna Wintour wrote the foreword for the book.] The dress is only one aspect covered in this image-filled coffee table book. Vera Wang applies the same degree of elegance and precision that made her designs the gold standard for brides and applies it to the various components that comprise a wedding ceremony—the ring, the engagement, the music, the reception, etc. It must have been an expensive book to produce, and one imagines future editions will not be this lavish.Would make a great gift, one that could be passed down through generations of brides. Large heavy coffee table book, 288 pages. Measures 10" x 13.5" x 1". Good vintage condition By Harper Collins. Collectible Very Good. First Edition 2001. First Printing. Hard Cover.
