Publisher's Synopsis

Drawn from an archive comprised of 1,500 separate pieces, including 600 original drawings, colour xeroxes, swatch references and inspiration materials, this book presents a revelatory look at Sprouse's design work from the mid-1970s through the late 1980s, a period characterised by the artist/designer's participation in and connection to the glamorous studios of Bill Blass and Halston and his embrace of New York City's edgy East Village/Bowery vibe.
