Mary Quant. Vivienne Westwood. Alexander McQueen. Martine Rose. The list of designers inspired by the chaos and expanse of London is almost endless, as are the styles and subcultures born there. From the punks of King's Road to the New Romantics of the Soho clubbing scene, London is entirely unique in its sprawling and often unorthodox range of fashions. So many of the world's most beloved fashion icons are also Londoners, with figures like Twiggy, Kate Moss, Alexa Chung, Siouxsie Sioux, and Adwoah inspiring trends across the globe.
Trope Paris, the sixth volume in the Trope City Editions series, celebrates the architecture and urban landscapes of France's capital city and is a global center for art, fashion, gastronomy, and culture. This carefully curated and bound collection of over 200 photographs offers a new perspective in Paris. Each chapter is accompanied by a map, along with the locations where the photographs were taken. From Montmartre and the Sacre-Coeur to the lights of the Arc de Triomphe and the Champs-Elysee to the magnificence of the Eiffel Tower, these images command a strong point of view: digitally processed, filtered, toned, de-saturated, sharpened, for a very urban sensibility. Showcasing both the historic elegance and quiet glamour of contemporary Paris, the images reveal distinctive and dramatic visions of one of the world's greatest cities.
