Bergdorf's on the Plaza: The Story of Bergdorf Goodman and a Half-Century of American Fashion

New York: Alfred A. Knopf, 1956. Docktor, Irving. First Edition. Hard Cover. Very Good / Very Good. Item #2346559

First edition. Light edge wear, 1/2 inch closed tear to rear jacket corner. Binding tight and square, pages clean, bright, and unmarked.

x, 244 pp. Includes three sections of black-and-white photographs and reproductions of early advertisements. Jacket design by Irving Docktor. A detailed account of how the partnership of Edwin Goodman and Herman Bergdorf marked a shift in American fashion sense, particularly among women. Though it was subsumed by Nieman Marcus in the 1980s, Bergdorf's defined an era, and helped make Fifth Avenue in Manhattan a shopping destination. A worthy addition to the 'sociology of taste.'

Price: $250.00
