The age of Worth, couturier to the Empress Eugénie.

Author:	Edith Saunders
Publisher:	London, New York, Longmans, Green [1954]
Edition/Format:	Print book : EnglishView all editions and formats
Summary:	"The life of Worth, the great couturier whose name was for so long unique in the world of fashion, is a remarkable story of an Englishman conquering a domain which for many centuries had belonged to the French alone. Going to Paris at the age of twenty, with no assets other than an apprentice's training and the moral qualities derived from an Evangelical upbringing, he saw the revolution of 1848 and the establishment of the Second Empire. Risining on the wave of prosperity which France experienced under the rule of Napoleon III, he became the couturier of the Empress Eugénie, and before he reached the age of forty he had made himself the arbiter of Parisian elegance."  Read more...
