      • Product Description: Can dormant beauty really be awakened by a Princely touch? The classic story of Sleeping Beauty has had us believing so for years. Now, spun magically from the threads of this much-beloved fairy tale, comes the enchanting memoir of celebrated designer Christian Lacroix, who has made so many women feel like fairy princesses in his creations. Fairy tale and haute couture mix charmingly in this story reimagined by fashion writer and internationally bestselling author Camilla Morton, and illustrated exclusively by Lacroix himself. This new twist on a time-honored tale will cast a spell, revive childhood fantasies, and reassure you that dreams really do come true... 

        Each book in this inspired series from fashion writer Camilla Morton inventively reimagines one of our favourite "Once Upon a Time" stories, blending with it the real-life story of a famed fashion designer. Lushly illustrated by the designers themselves, these tales illuminate each iconic individual's creative magic while celebrating his unique life and career. The result is an intriguing combination  of whimsy and memoir.

        In this contemporary twist on the tale of Sleeping Beauty, Lacroix exercises a stunningly diverse array of artistic styles, revealing many more mesmerizing sides to his fertile imagination than those we have already seen in his magnificent fashions.
