There's nowhere quite like the French Riviera when it comes to style.

With its reputation as the playground of the rich, famous and beautiful since the early twentieth century, the Riviera has always been a natural hotbed for new trends. Little Book of Riviera Style explores the signature styles and stylish visitors to the Côte d'Azur. From Coco Chanel in sporty jersey on the beach at Deauville to Jane Birkin sporting her favourite basket bag in Saint-Tropez, and from Bjork in pink organza at Cannes to Naomi Campbell in Breton stripes on a yacht, this is the coastline of 1,000 fashion moments.

Bestselling author Emma Baxter-Wright introduces the key moments, looks, locations and pieces that define the Riviera in all its chic glory.
