In Review: Kenneth Cole Production

This Is A Kenneth Cole Production, Rizzoli New York 2013

Any book that has the word 'production' in its title is one that is worth reading! This Is A Kenneth Cole Production is no exception, and I was overjoyed when a copy arrived a few weeks ago.

The publication provides a look back at the man and his empire, examining his three decade strong career and the brand's social conscience.

Cole is famous for using his fashion profile as a platform for championing causes such as support for gun control, the HIV/AIDS community and same sex marriage. The cover and select pages in the book have augmented reality, and when scanned with your mobile phone (and a free download of the app Junaio,) you will be treated to a personal message from the designer himself and insider video content about the company. I can think of no recent fashion publication that offers this!

The book also has a host of notable contributors from Bill Clinton to Joe Zee, Diane von Furstenberg to Robert Redford.
