Download or read book Nautical Chic written by Amber Jane Butchart and published by . This book was released on 2015-03-25 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Chanel's coastal couture to McLaren and Westwood's punk-fuelled pirates, from Jean Paul Gaultier's beefcake camp to Tommy Hilfiger's preppy classics, this is the first and only book to celebrate nautical fashion and all its iconic looks. Nautical style has an enduring sophistication, and this volume is a glorious celebration of its perennial popularity, tracing the history of its trends and impact on the clothes we love. From the beaches of Cape Cod and Nantucket to the yachts of Côte d'Azur, not to mention catwalks everywhere, the nautical look has cut a sartorial swathe for over two centuries. Amber Jane Butchart charts the rise and rise of the nautical influence on fashion over five chapters, each one devoted to an iconic maritime figure. While 'The Sailor' explores the undeniable sex appeal of the sailor and 'The Sportsman' covers the classic All-American Look, 'The Officer' shows how epaulettes, brass buttons and braiding came to be catwalk staples. 'The Fisherman' charts how blue-and-white stripes became the choice of style arbiters as diverse as Coco Chanel, Pablo Picasso, Audrey Hepburn, Brigitte Bardot and Andy Warhol. 'The Pirate' concludes the book by tying together Captain Hook, Malcolm McLaren and Vivienne Westwood, and Alexander McQueen.

Book excerpt: From the modernist elegance of Coco Chanel to Malcolm McLaren and Vivienne Westwood's punk-fuelled pirates, the appeal of nautical dress has cut a sartorial swathe for over two centuries. But how did garments such as the blue and white fisherman's top and peacoat cross over from uniform and workwear into fashionable dress? Fashion historian Amber Jane Butchart traces the relationship between maritime dress and the fashionable wardrobe, uncovering stories, tracking the trends, and tracing the evolution of the style back to its roots in our seafaring past. Butchart weaves together politics, imperialism, war, leisure, trade, sport and seafaring adventure to tell the stories of garments - the duffle coat, the yellow fisherman's macintosh, the yacht club blazer -loaded with historical and cultural significance. From Chanel's coastal couture to McLaren and Westwood's piratical punk, from Jean Paul Gaultier's beefcake camp to Tommy Hilfiger's preppy classics, this is the first and only book to celebrate nautical fashion and all its iconic looks. The author charts how blue-and-white stripes became the choice of style arbiters as diverse as Coco Chanel, Pablo Picasso, Audrey Hepburn, Brigette Bardot, and Andy Warhol. "The Pirate" concludes the book by tying together Captain Hook, Malcolm McLaren, Vivienne Westwood and Alexander McQueen.
