One of the most colourful and fabulous fashionistas in the country Nicky Haslam has been at the forefront of the fashion and celebrity world for decades. Mixing with supermodels, film stars and royalty he has now written a book about our culture and certainly has some tales to tell.
Nicky Haslam has always been at the centre of things wherever he is - at parties, opening nights, royal weddings - and has stories to tell of crossing paths, and more, with the cultural icons of our time: Cecil Beaton, Francis Bacon, Diana Cooper, Lucian Freud, David Hockney, Andy Warhol, Jack Kennedy and Marilyn Monroe to name but a few. Redeeming Features is an exuberantly told and stunningly crafted memoir: a compelling and wholly singular document of our times.
