Over deze titel
The gripping, unique memoir from internationally famous French fashion designer - and creator of The Dress - Roland Mouret.
Roland Mouret's influence on the fashion world - from The Dress, to the fashion front-lines of Paris, London and New York, to mentoring Victoria Beckham - cannot be ignored. But though you know his work, you don't know his story.
Born the son of a butcher in a rural village in the Pyrenees, his first encounter with fabric and form aged seven was folding his butcher's apron to avoid the blood. He found his way into fashion through modelling, a short stint at fashion school and photoshoot styling, against a backdrop of glamour, clubbing, sex and all that being a gay man in the 90s in Paris and London entailed. But he found his true passion the moment he started to drape fabric over a mannequin - just as he had with his apron decades earlier.
Mouret's clothes were something new, stemming from a wonder at and respect for the female form. Others were making clothes by the rules, and finding the women who fit those rules too. But Mouret looked at the woman first, and created clothes that gave her power - something that came naturally to a person who had had to fight his way to find his place in the world. After a career creating the clothing that lets people tell their fashion stories, he's ready to tell his own.
'A captivating memoir on the vision, passion and sacrifice required to lead a creative life' - Robert Diament, Talk Art podcast
'Roland Mouret is a brilliant designer, a visionary, a good friend and an annoying Frenchman, but who knew he was a great storyteller too' - Marc Almond
'Roland Mouret is a visionary in the truest sense of the word. His influence and impact on womenswear in particular occurs only once in a generation, but that alone does not capture his achievements. His mentorship and guidance of a new band of creatives in fashion has established a vanguard of groundbreaking designers and ensured his legacy is one we will enjoy for many years to come' - Edward Enninful©2026 Roland Mouret (P)2026 Hodder & Stoughton Limited
