If you have any interest in the supermodel era of fashion, Champagne Supernovas is a great look into a piece of it.
The book gives you an inside look at the style scene in the 1990s highlighting moments with Kate Moss, Alexander McQueen, Marc Jacobs, and more.

It’s glamorous, sure, but the exploration of the underbelly of popular culture makes it that much more exciting to read.
