  • The End of Fashion by Teri Agins 

Though written at a time when fast fashion had not become the buzzword, this book is relevant even today. The book covers all aspects of the fashion industry from manufacturing, retailing, licensing to image making and financing. Written by a Wall Street Journal reporter, this book not only covers the creative aspect of the fashion industry but also the business side of it.

  • The Battle of Versailles by Robin Givhan 

Though this book revolves around one of the most historic international fashion shows that saw a face-off between American and French designers, it covers the cultural, historical and social changes that took place in the world of fashion during the 50s, 60s and the 70s.

There are no two ways that Alexander McQueen has changed the fashion landscape with his avant-garde creativity and artistry.

Considered as one of the most stylish women in the fashion industry, Nina Garcia, the editor-in-chief of Elle, shares an  exhaustive list of the essential must-have pillars of the fashion world. Though written for anyone who is interested in fashion, this book is particularly important for fashion students and celebrity stylists as it lays a solid foundation for buying ‘investment pieces’ rather than falling in the trap of fast fashion.
