McFadden, Mary. Mary McFadden, High Priestess of High Fashion, A Life in Haute Couture, Décor, and Design. First Edition. 2004. Book is in very good condition; dust jacket is in very good minus condition—jacket shows edgewear. Book is signed “Mary McFadden ‘05” on the title page. Co-written with Ruta Saliklis.
This was the book for an eponymous exhibition held at The Allentown Art Museum. The word “priestess” in the book’s title is appropriate, as there is a mystical quality present in McFadden’s designs featured in this book. There are nods to antiquity, Africa, and India, but they are not slavish reproductions. McFadden makes the designs entirely her own. Includes color and b & w photographs depicting not only McFadden’s fashion designs but also her interior ones as well.
