NOTE THAT SINCE THE BOOK WEIGHS OVER ONE POUND, THERE MAY BE ADDITIONAL SHIPPING CHARGES IF YOU LIVE OUTSIDE THE U.S. [From the dust jacket flaps] Before the invention of Marilyn, even before the invention of Mae West, there were the "It" Girls. The "It" Girls: two Edwardian sisters with classical sex appeal and a very twentieth-century genius for self-promotion. These two extraordinary women propelled themselves to the center of the fashionable world, with no resources beyond brains and style. Lucy, Lady Duff Gordon, better known as "Lucile," became the foremost couturiere of her day, arbiter of fashion to everyone who was anyone on two continents. Her younger sister, Elinor Glyn, a popular romance novelist, was a legend in her own time, known to her public as a titian-haired temptress undulating on a tiger skin. In late-nineteenth-century England, careers were unthinkable for upper-class women. Despite their aristocratic upbringing, meager inheritances and unwise marriages forced the sisters to support their families. With her innovative eye for flattering, uncorseted styles and her love of sweet-pea and hydrangea colors, Lucy elevated the lowly occupation of dress designer to new social heights. Her fashions were the rage with duchesses and queens halfway round the world, yet Lucy preferred the company of such "bohemians" as Isadora Duncan, Sarah Bernhardt, and Ellen Terry. Elinor achieved modest fame with the publication of The Visits of Elizabeth, a barbed autobiographical account of life as a debutante. But true notoriety came with the appearance of her shocker of a novel, Three Weeks, detailing an affair between two recognizable members of her high-society set with unprecedented sexual candor. With the demise of the Edwardian age, both sisters' fortunes declined. Lucy escaped the doomed Titanic only to find the reputation of her second husband, Sir Cosmo Duff Gordon, foundering in one of the most gossip-ridden court scandals of the era. Elinor, in turn, was dumped by the great love of her life, the canny and cultivated politician, Lord Curzon. While Lucy retired in state to Hampstead Heath, the indomitable Elinor embarked on a new career as one of the first women directors in 1920s Hollywood. Well into her sixties, she set about teaching King Vidor how to shoot a love scene—and invented the role of the "It" Girl, which made Clara Bow a star. Drawing on letters, private diaries, and the observations of contemporaries, Meredith Etherington-Smith and Jeremy Pilcher have written an absorbing, vividly detailed biography of two complex women who advanced upon their time with incomparable energy and ingenuity. Meredith Etherington-Smith lives in London and is the author of Jean Patou, published in Great Britain. She has contributed articles on fashion, decoration, and literature to Paris Vogue and Women's Wear Daily for many years, as well as writing television documentaries. Jeremy Pilcher is a former British merchant banker. This is his first book.
