"Sample" features 10 curators from the fashion arena who each chose 10 designers they deem cutting edge and influential. The result is a coffee-table book that pulls together runway shots, fashion illustrations, photography and images of fabric swatches from 100 designers. The book`s curators are Alexander McQueen; television host Tim Blanks; Carta Editorial`s managing director, Patricia Carta; Royal College of Art tutor Ulrich Lehmann; stylist Arianne Phillips; Paris Editions Dit-Voir editorial director Stephen Todd; Tokyo designer and photographer Kyoichi Tsuzuki; designer Walter Van Beirendonck; British Vogue`s fashion features editor, Harriet Quick, and Harper`s Bazaar fashion editor at large Brana Wolf. The tome is organized alphabetically, starting with a spread on Antwerp, Belgium, designer Haider Ackermann, picked by Todd, and finishing with Y-3, chosen by Wolf. In between are pages devoted to well-known designers such as Phoebe Philo, Alber Elbaz, Hedi Slimane and Angela Missoni, and lesser-recognized designers such as Fábia Bercsek, Frieda Degeyter and Emilene Galende. The curators were asked to write short essays on each of their picks with stories about the designer and what makes them cutting-edge. The white cover, designed by Julia Hasting, is pleated and its pages are cut unevenly. An elastic band runs across the cover, with only a clothing tag announcing the book`s title. (from WWD)
