More often than not, people are only exposed to the finished products of a fashion designer's seasonal vision; 'The Fashionable Selby' is a book that hopes to change that, if only for one instance in time. It is comprised of workspace portraits, often with the creative in frame, that give a fuller context to what goes into the clothing that make it to the runway or even into a local department store.
Put together by Todd Selby, a photographer and writer based in New York City, 'The Fashionable Selby' is the third and latest of his publications. Following 'The Selby is in Your Place' and 'Edible Selby,' the candid images are accompanied by interviews Isabel Marant, Dries van Noten and more.
