- Summary
- "One of the most exciting fashion designers in the United States, Cuban-born Isabel Toledo has been honored with a National Design award from the Cooper Hewitt Museum and a Couture Council Award for Artistry of Fashion, given by The Museum at FIT. Yet her name and work have been recognized -- until recently -- only by fashion insiders. This ravishing book brings Toledo's creations to a wide audience, places them within the context of contemporary fashion, and examines her creative process." --Book jacket.
