Overview

The fashion world is set to be rocked by the release of Surviving 7th Avenue, a provocative new memoir that delves deep into the tumultuous underbelly of the fashion industry. Authored by designer and merchandising entrepreneur Kate Liegey, this book promises to expose the lesser-seen realities of a world glamorized by its outward sparkle and allure. Kate Liegey, whose illustrious career has spanned global capitals and seen collaborations with some of the biggest names in entertainment and fashion, uses her unique insider perspective to pull back the curtain on Seventh Avenue. Known colloquially as the garment center, this iconic fashion district serves as the backdrop for some narrative rich with intrigue, betrayal, and the pursuit of glamour at any cost. Surviving 7th Avenue explores a path strewn with the highs and lows of the fashion industry. From rubbing shoulders with celebrities and launching major brands to navigating the pitfalls of mean girls and garment center bullies, Liegey's journey is anything but ordinary. The book promises to reveal the raw truths of an industry famed for both its creativity and its scandal, addressing hard-hitting issues such as sexual harassment, deceit, and the relentless quest for fame and fortune. Liegey's narrative is informed by her extensive experience designing and merchandising for powerhouse brands across the globe. From orchestrating a clothing launch for Taylor Swift at Hong Kong Fashion Week to contributing to collections for Jessica Simpson, Tyra Banks, Mariah Carey and many more top brands, her resume reads like a who's who of fashion royalty. Her experience spans a wide range of attire, including athleisure, sportswear, and intimate apparel, giving her a comprehensive understanding of the industry from the inside out. With Surviving 7th Avenue, Liegey does not shy away from controversy and she will ruffle a few ""Gucci"" feathers in her story. Instead, she embraces it, offering readers a candid look at her personal triumphs and trials that punctuate the fashion industry. This book is not just a recounting of events but a bold declaration of independence from the often-toxic cycles that plague the fashion world. It is a call to light for those hidden corners where misconduct and mistreatment have lingered for too long and Liegey exposes it all. The book is poised not only to captivate readers with its engaging storytelling but also to inspire dialogue and change within the fashion industry itself. It is a must-read for anyone fascinated by the intersection of fashion, celebrity, and the ceaseless ambition that drives the city of New York.
