Description

Zac Posen is one of the most recognizable brands in the fashion world. Discovered as a teenager, Posen would design clothes for his high school friends: New York cool kids such as Chloë Sevigny and Claire Danes. A wunderkind who crashed and burned at an age when many designers are still finding their footing, his fast ascent to fashion stardom also was his downfall. Featuring interviews with Posen’s family and friends (including Naomi Campbell and André Leon Talley) and lots of style, House of Z follows Posen’s rise and fall and, at last, his recovery.
