In Pursuit of Fashion presents more than 80 outstanding works from one of the greatest private collections of twentieth-century fashion. Featuring not only iconic works by established designers but also pioneering looks by lesser-known couturiers, the ensembles, accessories, and works on paper—collected over several decades by Sandy Schreier—include many rare pieces that define key moments in fashion history. A fascinating introduction, six informative chapters, and a lively interview with Schreier trace the progress of her collecting from its roots in Detroit to the present.
