(Prof. Maxwell Stracke) DISCLAIMER | DMCA D8RB31SIDEDP # Doc \ Ralph Rucci: The Art of Weightlessness RALPH RUCCI: THE ART OF WEIGHTLESSNESS Yale Univ. Press, New Haven, 2007. Hard Cover. Book Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: New. New copy still in shrinkwrap, no markings. 224 pages with 150 color illustrations. Working quietly and without much public attention for more than 20 years, American fashion designer Ralph Rucci suddenly became a headline topic in 2002, when he was invited to show his collection at the haute couture in Paristhe first American to receive such an invitation since Mainbocher in the 1930s. This sumptuously illustrated book is the first to explore in depth Ruccis life and work, including the inspirations behind the extraordinarily beautiful and very expensive clothes he creates. The contributors to the volume explore many aspects of Ruccis genius and emergence as a master in the fashion world. Valerie Steele places his life and work in the context of modern fashion history and discusses his connections with such figures as Balenciaga and Halston. Patricia Mears closely examines the garments he designs, reveals what makes them so special, and considers influences on his work. Clare Sauro describes Ruccis accessories, which complete the aesthetic vision that his fashions embody.

  • From the Baffler No. 23, 2013]
    Facebook Feminism, Like It or Not SUSAN FALUDI [from The Baffler No. 23, 2013] The congregation swooned as she bounded on stage, the prophet sealskin sleek in her black skinny ankle pants and black ballet flats, a lavalier microphone clipped to the V-neck of her black button-down sweater. ―All right!! Let‘s go!!‖ she exclaimed, throwing out her arms and pacing the platform before inspirational graphics of glossy young businesswomen in managerial action poses. ―Super excited to have all of you here!!‖ ―Whoo!!‖ the young women in the audience replied. The camera, which was livestreaming the event in the Menlo Park, California, auditorium to college campuses worldwide, panned the rows of well-heeled Stanford University econ majors and MBA candidates. Some clutched copies of the day‘s hymnal: the speaker‘s new book, which promised to dismantle ―internal obstacles‖ preventing them from ―acquiring power.‖ The atmosphere was TED-Talk-cum-tent-revival-cum- Mary-Kay-cosmetics-convention. The salvation these adherents sought on this April day in 2013 was admittance to the pearly gates of the corporate corner office. ―Stand up,‖ the prophet instructed, ―if you‘ve ever said out loud, to another human being—and you have to have said it out loud—‗I am going to be the number one person in my field. I will be the CEO of a major company. I will be governor. I will be the number one person in my field.‘‖ A small, although not inconsiderable, percentage of the young women rose to their feet. The speaker consoled those still seated; she, too, had once been one of them.

    Ralph Rucci: From Philadelphia to Paris Published on iItaly.org (http://www.iitaly.org) Ralph Rucci: From Philadelphia to Paris Marisa Iallonardo (October 15, 2009) One of America’s most prominent designers also has Italian roots If we were to play that old word-association game—the one where I say a word and you say the first thing that comes to mind—“Italian fashion” would likely yield Gucci and Prada as answers. But what Page 1 of 3 Ralph Rucci: From Philadelphia to Paris Published on iItaly.org (http://www.iitaly.org) if I were to say “Italian-American fashion?” or even “fashion by Italian-Americans?” That’s where things get trickier. A mall mainstay like Armani Exchange? Possibly Lady Gaga—the fashion-loving singer does have Italian roots. But it turns out there’s no need to venture very far from the runway: Ralph Rucci, one of American’s most prominent designers and a nearly 30-year industry vet, also happens to be Italian-American. Born and raised in Philadelphia, both Rucci’s paternal and maternal grandparents hail from Italy—Abruzzo and Calabria, respectively. His father, who worked as a butcher, and his mother taught him to dream big, that he could do whatever he set his mind to. He told the South Philly Review [2], "Ever since I was a kid, they just instilled this ambition and belief that the world is your oyster and you're a fool if you don't pick it up and eat it." And Rucci did just that. After his junior year studying philosophy at Temple University he high-tailed it to New York City.

Acclaimed filmmaker Andrew Rossi (Page One: Inside the New York Times) follows Anna Wintour, Artistic Director of Condé Nast and editor-in-chief of Vogue magazine and longtime chair of the Met Gala, and Andrew Bolton, the iconoclastic curator who conceived the groundbreaking show, for eight months as they prepare for an evening they hope will take the worlds of art and fashion by storm. Documenting one of the most exclusive parties in the world side-by-side with an exhibition that drew more than three-quarters of a million visitors during its four-month run, The First Monday in May is a captivating portrait of the private side of a pair of high-profile public events.
