Infos

First published in 1956, What Shall I Wear? is revolutionary fashion designer Claire McCardell's collection of fashion wisdom and philosophy, and a vivacious guide to looking effortlessly stylish. This new edition of the sought-after classic features a foreword by iconic designer Tory Burch and a color insert of photos from McCardell's collections. "e;The testament to great design, Claire McCardell's dresses look fresh, contemporary, and desirable eight decades after they were made, as the Costume Institute's 2022 exhibit In America: An Anthology of Fashion demonstrated."e; -Nicole Phelps, global director, Vogue Runway and Vogue Business "e;Among the many surprises and insights I discovered in McCardell's valuable book is that she wanted to call it Fashion is Fun. That may also be the secret behind her genius and enduring influence-she refused to take fashion too seriously."e; -Cathy Horyn, New York Magazine "e;The first designer to create a cohesive vision rooted in the American lifestyle of ease, McCardell and her contributions as a designer and a woman in business are often overlooked. Tory Burch's new foreword . . .puts this American treasure in her rightful place."e; -Constance White, fashion editor and author of How to Slay: Inspiration from the Queens and Kings of Black Style "e;Claire McCardell's guiding philosophy of dressing with ease in afunctional, fashionable American look was groundbreaking-and feminist-for her times. And it continues to resonate globally on the runways and in closets today."e; -Booth Moore, executive editor, Women's Wear Daily
