Olivier Saillard is director of Palais Galliera, the Paris
Museum of Fashion. A renowned fashion historian, he is an author
and has curated many successful exhibitions including
Christian Lacroix, Fashion Stories (Art Deco Museum, Paris)
and Andy Warhol and Fashion (Museum of Fashion, Marseille).
"[Saillard and Swinton are] an interesting pair. And, to prove it,
they set out to look at 20th century fashion in an entirely new
way. They are not the first nor will they be the last, but their
approach will probably remain the most intelligent for some time to
come. Impossible Wardrobes is the boxed three-volume chronicle of
their search for meaning, similarities and wearability of clothes
in three shows in different Paris venues."
-THE BUSINESS OF FASHION "An amazing three-book box set. Buy
[Impossible Wardrobes] for that daydreamy friend of yours who sees
the art in fashion - and everywhere else they look."
-SWEET via SnapChat "[Impossible Wardrobes] is naturally a quirky
affair. It applauds our relationship with clothes and considers
couture an art form."

Table Fashion Books)
