Here is the link to my Twitter thread review of the Meryle Secrest book Elsa Schiaparelli: A Biography.

My thread discusses Secrest's accomplished and atmospheric writing style. It discusses how Secrest examines Schiap's life and society. It gives insight into Schiap's sources of inspiration, as well as how Schiap was always on the cutting edge of things. It discusses some challenges Secrest leaves for future Schiap biographers. And it gives some of my own reflections and favorite parts from the book.

Here is the link to the Penguin Random House edition of Elsa Schiaparelli.

I bought this book at the Tattered Cover Book Store in Colorado.
