Chanel, Alaïa, Yves Saint Laurent, Pucci, Giorgio Armani, Missoni-We can all visualize their iconic designs, but can we envision where the designers behind these fashion powerhouses retreat(ed) after a long day creating their coveted collections? And how does their fashion aesthetic translate into their personal domains? Beyond Chic: Great Fashion Designers at Home invites readers into the private homes of these very public tastemakers and a lustrous list of equally-inspiring courteriers, stylists, muses, and fashion personalities.
