We are honored to host Mauricio and Roger Padilha who will sign their beautiful new coffee table book revealing the untold story of Jean Louis - the visionary designer who redefined Hollywood glamour, elevating costume design into a true art form.Jean Louis’s creations illuminated more than 180 films across three decades and resulted in some of the most remembered garments during Hollywood’s Golden Age—from Rita Hayworth’s smoldering satin column dress in Gilda to Marilyn Monroe’s iconic nude illusion gown worn to sing “Happy Birthday” to President Kennedy.
Jean Louis: Hollywood’s Bombshell Designer features dozens of film stills, fashion sketches, and movie posters illustrating the career of an artist that helped define the femme fatales, showgirls and ingénues of American cinema’s most famous films. A tribute to craftsmanship, beauty, and style, the book stands as a glamorous testament to the enduring brilliance of Jean Louis and the timeless spell of Hollywood’s most radiant era.
