A Dash of Daring: Carmel Snow and Her Life In Fashion, Art, and Letters by Penelope Rowlands
This was profiled in the September issue of US Vogue and it’s a fascinating biography of the famous fashion editor Carmel Snow. So who cares if it’s not available till November put it on the must buy list! Carmel Snow (if you are not a fashionista) was the editor of US Vogue in the 1920’s and left to go to Harpers Bazaar in 1933 to start what was to become an amazing and very creative era in fashion. A fascinating story she was a very independent thinker and had a baby when she was 39 which was unheard of in those days, and of course she was the editor who gave Diana Vreeland her first job. The rest is history. Must buy.
