{"product_id":"the-way-we-wore-a-life-in-clothes","title":"The Way We Wore: A Life in Clothes","description":"\u003cp\u003eDaphne Selfe has been photographed by Mario Testino  Nick Knight and David Bailey. She has modelled for Dolce and Gabbana  Red or Dead and high-street chains such as TK Maxx  and regularly appears in newspaper fashion pages and glossy magazines. She is one of Britains most in-demand supermodels and has worked non-stop for almost twenty years. But what makes her really rather extraordinary is that she is now in her late eighties. Daphne grew up in an age when dresses were lovingly run up for you by your mother  when needlework for even the most basic outfit was an art form  and when a new Simplicity Pattern was almost more exciting than a new dance tune. Perhaps as a result  she has had a lifelong love affair with clothes and fashion. The Way We Wore is a heart-warming account of that love affair  taking readers from the organdie party frocks of a 1930s childhood to the pages of Vogue. In it  Daphne shares a wealth of anecdotes from her peripatetic childhood  following her teacher father from school to school  from her modelling career  which began as a department store house model  and from her long and happy marriage. The result is a vivid and inspiring memoir from a woman who has always embraced life and who continues to do so in her ninth decade with as much zest as in her first.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44963285762101,"sku":"ByrdShop_1447291913","price":93.14,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9781447291916.jpg?v=1770410799","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/the-way-we-wore-a-life-in-clothes","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
