  • Overview

    This beautifully illustrated fashion biography tells the story of Japanese cultural icon Yumi Katsura, a celebrated couturier who was also one of the bestselling luxury wedding-dress designers in the world.

    Yumi Katsura could be the greatest fashion designer you’ve never heard of. One of the world’s bestselling luxury wedding-dress designers, as well as a celebrated couturier, she was venerated in her native Japan as a cultural icon and an inspirational business leader. Among her most celebrated pieces are a paper ‘washi mode’ dress housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, a vestment worn by Pope John Paul II and a diamond-laden wedding gown ranked among the most expensive of all time.

    This beautifully illustrated biography tells the story of the woman who single-handedly created Japan’s modern wedding industry, turning centuries of tradition on its head. From Katsura’s childhood in the ruins of wartime Tokyo to her stellar international career, her life is an example to anyone who dreams of living for their passion. Written by Cori Coppola – producer of the acclaimed documentary House of Cardin – with co-author Kristin Coppola, this lavish fashion biography is a must-have for critics, connoisseurs and couture fans.
