Jaunty visual portrait of the iconic sportswear brand of the '80s: with photography by Oliviero Toscani, also of Fiorucci and Benetton fame; hairstyles by Valentin Mordacq, "an authority on women and motorcycles"; a young François Nars for lead makeup artist; Esprit employee profiles by Beth LaDove; and vignettes by PR director Robertson written in the voice of the young Rocco Toscani, the then-four-year-old son of photographer Oliviero and model Kristi Toscani.

Original color photographic wrappers. In original publisher's plastic slipcase. Color photo-illustrated throughout. 199, [1] pages. Spine sunned, as common, mild edgewear. Overall, clean, sound, and bright.…
