After launching her eponymous haute couture  house in Paris in 1927, the Roman-born designer captured the attention  of the world at large not only thanks to her trompe l’oeil patterns and  surrealist forms—but also because of her creative relationships with  some of the epoch’s most renowned artists. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e From Salvador Dalí, who collaborated with  Schiaparelli on her infamous Lobster Dress to Alberto Giacometti’s  furnishings for her salon and René Magritte, whose surrealist works  inspired some of the designer’s creations, this beautifully illustrated  tome delves into the couturiere’s fascinating rapports with these  artistic legends.
