Synopsis
As the creative director of Calvin Klein, where he worked for nearly three decades, Zack Carr helped elevate the house to one of the premier forces in fashion world-wide. His premature death from cancer in 2000 cut short a life and career that had indelibly altered the status of American fashion, making it "The Look" and lifestyle to which so many aspire. A tribute to Carr's life and legacy, this exquisite collection of photographs, sketches and selected writings takes us on tour of a world inhabited by Carr's muses (Balenciaga, Chanel, Audrey Hepburn, Jackie Kennedy), friends (Marina Schiano, Gwyneth Paltrow), and inspiration found in the form of art itself.
