Cleonice Capece: An Evening with the Author

On Tuesday 4th November, we are looking forward to our evening with Cleonice Capece, whose anticipated visual autobiography 'Fashion by Chance - 1960-1974' is now out.

'Fashion by Chance, 1960-1974' provides a vivid and richly documented account of her life working as a designer, during the years when the Italian fashion industry began to move away from haute couture towards pret-a-porter.  It is a fascinating personal insight of these pivotal years, and a beautiful a retrospective of Cleonice's own contributions during that time.  She was at the centre of the 'Made in Italy' philosophy - beautiful products that were both designed and crafted in Italy and were for the first time readily available.

Please do come along and meet the author on Tuesday 4th from 6-8pm at Potterton Books, 93 Lower Sloane Street, London. SW1W 8DA.
