SynopsisIn the mold of Preston Bailey, Jeff Leatham is known for his extravagant floral designs and large-scale installations. As the artistic director of the Georges V Hotel in Paris and with celebrities such as Madonna, Tina Turner and Eva Longoria as his clients, Leatham has been known as a rock-star floral designer for more than 15 years, but this is the first book to cover his wide-ranging body of work. Not your grandmother's floral designer, Leatham appeals to a stylish, fashion-forward audience. A spectacular volume on the designs of Jeff Leatham, the world's preeminent floral artist to the stars., Jeff Leatham has created a sensation with his floral designs, and has been voted Best Hotel Florist in Europe many consecutive years. He is considered the rock star of florists and his floral installations are often compared to contemporary art. Leatham is currently Artistic Director of the Four Seasons Hotel George V in Paris. Nadja Swarovski is the great-great-granddaughter of Daniel Swarovski, who founded the crystal firm in 1885. She has been with the firm since 1995 and is acclaimed for her collaborations with fashion deisgners including Alexander McQueen and Hussein Chalayan and for commissioning such contemporary designers as Zaha Hadid, Ron Arad and Tord Boontje to reinterpret Swarovski designs. Nadja and Jeff have collaborated on Swarovski designs and many events., A spectacular volume on the designs of Jeff Leatham, the floral artist to the stars. Jeff Leatham presents the next wave in designer floral arrangements. Leatham's freewheeling sensibility is rooted in upscale sophistication, earning him patrons as diverse as Oprah, Kylie Minogue, Tina Turner, and the Four Seasons George V in Paris. Collected within this volume are more than ten years' worth of floral masterpieces, from sensational parties to quiet intimate gatherings, all representing Leatham's unifying ideal that artful floral design can transform any space. Organized by type of event, from weddings to anniversary parties to personal birthday dinners, the book includes sumptuous and visually spectacular floral portfolios, together with sections by Leatham discussing his approach and techniques for every type of design. By laying out key elements to successful arrangements and encouraging risk-taking, his instructions are meant to inspire creations that are gorgeous yet boundary-pushing. Including more than 200 color photographs of magnificent floral sculptures, this volume is equal parts dazzling and inspirational.
