Reviews"Even if you don't have many of the designer's pieces hanging in your closet, you can celebrate her work with a new permanent fixture on you coffee table." - Fashionista.com "Though the wave of sadness felt after Ann Demeulemeester's departure from her eponymous label endures, the fashion set should find some consolation come fall. Demeulemeester has announced that she's penned a hardcover tome from Rizzoli....which is due out in October. The book promised to be "the first and highly personal perspective into the work and processes of Ann Demeulemeester," will boast more than one thousand images. Though springs' only just arrived, well be counting down the days until autumn." - Style.com "The $100 tome will contain more than 1,000 photographs that offers an intimate look at the mysterious designer and her lauded career." -Daily Front Row "Ann Demeulemeester, who dispatched a hand-written letter last November to reveal her exit from fashion, is now working on a book. The hardcover Rizzoli tome, written by the Belgian designer and with an introduction by musician Patti Smith, is due out in mid-October, and billed by the publisher as "the first and highly personal perspective into the work and processes of Ann Demeulemeester, one of the most influential and inspiring fashion designers of our time." -WWD "The book is already boasting buzz for its features. The project's introduction will reportedly be written by musician Patti Smith, who was a longtime muse and friend of the designer. For $100 price tag, you'll be able to feast your eyes on more than 1,000 photographs from the designer's long and eventful career in fashion." -FashionTimes.com, "Even if you don't have many of the designer's pieces hanging in your closet, you can celebrate her work with a new permanent fixture on you coffee table." - Fashionista.com "The book is, natch, black, with a lot of white space on each page perfectly framing photographs that chronicle Ms. Demeulemeester's 30 years in fashion. It has been her main project since she stepped down from her house...While it is quite thick, however, it is regular book length and width -- it's not one of those glossy megaliths that require their own coffee table -- which makes it something of an elegant surprise. It's pretty much her aesthetic in magnum opus form." - The New York Times "Though the wave of sadness felt after Ann Demeulemeester's departure from her eponymous label endures, the fashion set should find some consolation come fall.

As a matter of fact, if not for the thin paper stock, the 2000-page tome might prove unwieldy. The first part is a treasure trove of early photography, virtually impossible to come by in the pre-Internet era. From these you can glean how early some signature elements of Demeulemeester's aesthetic appeared...There are no breaks of any kind to separate one collection from the next-- a reminder that Demeulemeester sees her work as one continuous, undivided series of chapters." - Hint Magazine, "Even if you don't have many of the designer's pieces hanging in your closet, you can celebrate her work with a new permanent fixture on you coffee table." - Fashionista.com

SynopsisAnn Demeulemeester is the first book devoted to the complete work of the Antwerp-based Belgian designer, one of the true innovators of the current fashion scene with a massive cult-like following. The first comprehensive and highly personal perspective into the work and processes of Ann Demeulemeester, one of the most influential and inspiring fashion designers of our time., The first and highly personal perspective into the work and processes of Ann Demeulemeester, one of the most influential and inspiring fashion designers of our time. Graduating from Antwerp's Royal Academy of Fine Arts in 1981, Ann Demeulemeester (and her contemporaries in the Antwerp Six) transformed global fashion with an aggressive restatement of traditional fashion design and a polemical approach to luxury trends. Influenced by punk, she founded her label in 1985 and imbues her designs with a strong narrative and rebellious spirit. For Demeulemeester, fashion is a form of communication. Her complex language of contrasts covers a whole gamut of emotions. The tension is highly poetic, and her clothes reveal many layers of soul. Known for her elegant tailoring and dark yet glamorous aesthetic, she created a serene and darkly romantic world with an intriguing mix of edgy rebellion and sophistication. This book is a tribute to Demeulemeester's historical career, with over 1,000 photographs approximating some of the mystery and detailing associated with her brand.
