Summary

"Salvatore Ferragamo began his career as a shoemaker before he was barely a teenager. In America, his work would soon help invent the glamour of Hollywood's silent era as he created shoes for iconic films and stars like Gloria Swanson, Mary Pickford, and Douglas Fairbanks. With incisive commentary by Martin Scorsese, Manolo Blahnik, Christian Louboutin, and Wanda Ferragamo, this is a portrait of a man whose vision, passion, and craftsmanship made him 'shoemaker to the stars,' and an enduring cultural, fashion, and artistic influence."--Container.
