"The book "Rihanna and the Clothes She Wears" satisfies the cravings of fans and fashion enthusiasts alike, boasting over 100 images of Rihanna and her favorite designers who have influenced her taste."  -  HOLA! Magazine "I grew up on a really small Island, and I didn't have a lot of access to fashion, but as far as I could remember, fashion has always been my defence mechanism. Even as a child I remember thinking, she can beat me, but she cannot beat my outfit." - Rihanna, accepting the CFDA Fashion Icon of the Year Award in 2014. From the author of the runaway bestseller Harry Styles and the Clothes He Wears comes a new, fresh look at style icon Rihanna. Rihanna has learnt how to define her own terms whatever she does - whether in the worlds of fashion, music, beauty, philanthropy, business, or activism, she is both muse and creative, a collaborator and pioneer. To date she has 135 million Instagram followers and counting. In 2022 at the age of 34, largely because of her Fenty Beauty empire, she became Forbes' youngest self-made billionaire. But it is her personal wardrobe and the way she wears it that embodies Rihanna's charisma, integrity, and humour most: everything she does reflects what she wears herself. She is a risk-taker, but as she said on the red-carpet in 2014 "you will never be stylish if you don't take risks." The gamble has paid off. Rihanna's mix-and-match method of wearing high fashion and streetwear, young designers and vintage, hip-hop classics, and avant-garde custom-made pieces, has meant that she has equal footing in both the music and fashion industries. Chairman and CEO of the LVMH group, Sidney Toledano says she is: "a style icon for today's generation". The breadth of Rihanna's fashion knowledge and style is astounding. In Rihanna and the Clothes She Wears , Terry Newman steps into the world of this fashion icon by examining her style. From couture catwalks to her own empire Fenty, political statements to high street casual, this chic book fizzles with facts about Rihanna's styling choices, presenting the star's most revered looks. With quotes from key designers, this is the perfect gift for any fan.

Hermann Czech, geboren 1936, gehört zu den bekanntesten Architekten Österreichs, dessen Ansehen weit über die Grenzen hinausreicht. Dieser Einfluss gründet nicht nur auf seinem architektonischen Werk, das neben Bauwerken auch den Entwurf von Möbeln, Inneneinrichtungen und Ausstellungsgestaltungen umfasst, sondern auch auf seiner Tätigkeit als Autor zahlreicher architekturtheoretischer Schriften sowie auf seiner Herausgeberschaft von Neuausgaben und Übersetzungen von «Klassikern» der Architekturgeschichte, u.a. von Otto Wagner, Adolf Loos, Josef Frank und Christopher Alexander.Dieses neue Buch ist die erste Monografie über Hermann Czechs vielfältiges Schaffen. Ein erster kulturhistorischer Teil verknüpft sein Wirken mit den Ansätzen der Wiener Moderne. Der zweite, biografische Teil umfasst Czechs Jugend- und Studienjahre und analysiert die zeitgenössischen Einflüsse auf sein Denken und Bauen. Der dritte Teil legt über reine Projektbeschreibungen hinaus auch zahlreiche Referenzen und Überlegungen Czechs dar und bietet ein vollständiges Verzeichnis seiner Bauten, Projekte und Schriften. Ein Essay der Wiener Philosophin Elisabeth Nemeth über das Verhältnis von Architektur und Philosophie im Werk Hermann Czechs rundet den Band ab.
