From the publisher:

Rene Gruau has been representing fashion since the 1940s. This talented illustrator with a worldwide reputation is probably the person most responsible for making fashion known in the second half of the 20th century, by understanding it better than anyone. This book, made in collaboration with the artist, contains some of the finest drawings that highlighted his career. It is a fashion show in its own right, signed with the famous signature of Gruau.

This was storyboard artist and character designer Steve Jones (aka Stephen B. Jones) copy and he has written his name in pencil in the corner of the first page. Steve worked on Superman The Animated Series, Batman Beyond, Teen Titans, Justice League Unlimited, Batman: The Brave and the Bold, TMNT, and other shows.
