Often referred to as the Empress of Seventh Avenue, Miss Lambert, up to the time
of her death at the age of 100 in 2003, looked the part, with her trademark turbans and oversized jewelry. Her enthusiastic work and news releases as a publicity agent did everything to advance the careers of numerous American designers, among them Norman Norell, Bill Blass, Oscar de la Renta, Halston, and Calvin Klein. She created the Best-Dressed List, the Council of Fashion Designers of America, the Coty and CFDA Awards, and Fashion Week.

Eleanor Lambert: Still Here is the definitive monograph on the achievements of the extraordinary woman who changed fashion history, putting American fashion on the map in a culture once wholly dominated by European design and traditions. Written through the eyes and experiences of John A. Tiffany, who not only worked for Miss Lambert but who had access to a trove of archival materials that have never been published before, including dazzling fashion photography accompanied by their never-before-seen original press releases written by the legendary Miss Lambert herself, this book will provide the fashion-obsessed and many others with a behind-the-scenes account of a woman who gave life to the industry as we know it today.

John A. Tiffany is a fashion historian and lecturer with over 20 years of experience
in public relations, event production, and marketing projects around the world. He founded his own consulting business, John Tiffany + Associates, in New York in 2002. Before founding JT+A, Mr. Tiffany held the dual posts of Director of Fashion Shows/ Events and Director of Operations at LaForce & Stevens in New York. Early on, Tiffany was mentored by the legendary Eleanor Lambert.
