Daniel Vosovic Goes Inside Out

 

Instead of launching a collection post Project Runway, Daniel Vosovic has opted to write a book about how one should launch a collection. Huh? The title is a mouth full: "Fashion Inside Out: Daniel V's Guide to How Style Happens from Inspiration to Runway and Beyond" and Mr V says this regarding the work:

"I am trying to gain as much experience and knowledge before initially launching my own label. Some of the best designers in the world have failed because of one reason or another (though not due to a lack of talent) and if taking a little extra time to make sure that my team and myself, are in the right place to handle the workload, then I'm most certainly OK with that if it means I'll be around for decades and not just seasons."

A book about your non-existent fashion career is pretty strange for a "designer"...who doesn't have an actual line, however he did manage to enlist the advice of Tim Gunn, Nina Garcia, Todd Oldham and Diane Von Furstenburg to contribute to the tome. Get it HERE.
