The first monograph on the internationally renowned fashion artist David Downton. With a foreword by Christian Lacroix, and an afterword by Dita Von Teese, this book showcases more than 150 of David's drawings of celebrated women from the worlds of film, fashion and style. The illustrations are enlivened by fascinating anecdotes revealing behind-the-scenes stories, and by specially commissioned photographs documenting the glamour of portrait sittings in London, Paris and New York.
