Olivia Taylor, a stylish and creative genius, has a serendipitous and life-changing opportunity while navigating the convoluted world of haute couture. The 35-year-old British designer embarks on a career in fashion, which she discovers, she is ‘tailormade’ for. The dream job versus ruthless reality. Glamour versus drama. And to escort her through the conflict and cutthroat competition on this roller coaster journey, she depends on the loyal support of her precious friends and loving dog, Duke. Olivia is surprised and immediately curious when she stumbles across a miniature version of her namesake, a young orphan, nicknamed ‘Liv’. The little girl is captivating, with her lookalike features and natural charm. But something is about to turn her own world upside down in the realm of both work and romance. Olivia, through no design of her own, meets the handsome and mysterious Damien, which forces her to reconsider her notions of love. Will her whirlwind lifestyle even allow her to explore the possibility of a committed relationship? Only time and fate will tell. Her innate spirituality and sensitivity, coupled with her uncompromising self-belief will stand her in good stead, in pursuing her true calling in life. Adhering to those strong instincts, Olivia is able to seamlessly shift gears along the path of destiny and arrive at the best decision she has ever made, regardless of the extent to which her project threatens to tie her up in knots...

First published in 2013, Queer Style was ahead of its time. It was the first book to address the cultural, political, and material histories of clothes as signs and markers of gender and sexual identity, and remains key reading for scholars and students across fashion studies and the humanities more broadly. Now, 10 years later, the authors have revisited their classic work and updated it to examine the function of subcultural dress within queer communities and the mannerisms and messages that are used as signifiers of identity.
