The Battle of Versailles is probably one of the lesser-known events to occur within the infamous palace halls, but it’s definitely one of the most important for the fashion industry. Written by Pulitzer Prize–winning fashion critic Robin Givhan, the book examines the unprecedented runway walk-off between European and American designers that solidified Seventh Avenue in fashion history.
