About this product
Product Information
This is a book about the depth of a daughter's love, and the breadth of a mother's life; it is about letting go, but never forgetting...A photographer's love letter to her late mother, whose five year struggle with Alzheimer's and devout passion for couture clothing inspired this poignant and moving photo essay which sparkles with the memories of her mother's glamorous and fashionable life. In My Mother's Clothes , photographer Jeannette Montgomery Barron creates a poignant and enduring portrait of her late mother through still life images of her cherished clothing, shoes, and personal possessions. As her mother's struggle with Alzheimer's progressed, robbing her of any remembered past, Montgomery Barron began this unique visual album as a way of both sparking her mother's memories, and coping with her own sense of loss. Poetic, riveting, elegant, My Mother's Clothes is part fashion diary, part personal memoir, part loving memorial, and part life celebration. An inspiring and intimate true story told in picture and word that will be cherished by mothers and daughters, by fashion lovers and photography fans, by those grieving the loss of a loved one or anyone suffering from or affected by Alzheimer's.

Reviews
"Clothes are ultimately ephemeral. Good books arenrs"t. Jeannette Montgomery Barron has engineered a small bit of alchemy - her mother...lives on in these pages." -Jesse Kornbluth, HeadButler.com "In the delicate and incisive volume,My Mother's Clothes, photographer Jeannette Montgomery Barron delineates an eloquent portrait of her mother...through still life images of her clothes, shoes, purses and personal effects. The photographic journey-measured in literary sketches and succinct quotes, veined with humor in a trail of memories-turns into a gallery of portraits, composed but never melancholy or dusty." -Cesare Cunaccia,Vogue Italia "This book is a tenderhearted tribute to her mother, an interesting look back at fashion of the mid-twentieth century, and an intriguing way for readers to think about memory." -Forewordmagazine "My Mother's Clotheshas a beautiful light touch, ultimately life-affirming in the face of a terrible disease. It almost feels like a travel memoir where one is transported to another time and a charmed place - where good deeds, gracious manners, and impeccable taste prevails." -Ralph Gardner Jr, contributor to theNew York Times,Daily BeastandHuffington Post, "My Mother's Clotheshas a beautiful light touch, ultimately life-affirming in the face of a terrible disease. It almost feels like a travel memoir where one is transported to another time and a charmed place - where good deeds, gracious manners, and impeccable taste prevails." -Ralph Gardner Jr, contributor to theNew York Times,Daily BeastandHuffington Post, "...dives deeper into the memories that are attached to clothes. Barron photographed garments chosen from her mother's closet. Each dress, blazer, slip or swimsuit became a still life. Sometimes the garments were shot against a backdrop of plain fabric; sometimes they were laid out in the snow; sometimes they just seemed to float. She searches for personality,character, perhaps even a little bit of life spirit." -Robin Givhan,The Washington Post "Clothes become shorthand for experiences, and powerful triggers of memories. In Jeannette Montgomery Barron's series of photographs and written recollections, it becomes that much harder to claim that fashion is mere triviality. In some cases, it is life itself." -Alexandra Marshall,T,The New York TimesStyle Magazine "An extraordinary biography, created through 100 color photographs of clothing, shoes and handbags, plus all the portraits of Eleanor, the mother of Jeannette Montgomery Barron, author ofMy Mother's Clothes." -Vanity Fair Italia "Anyone who has a relative with Alzheimer's can relate to photographer/author Jeannette Montgomery Barron's new book,My Mother's Clothes." -Christina Mitchell,Courier-Post "A charming and fashion-packed 'album of memories.' Eleanor Morgan Montgomery Atuk was obviously an incredible and beloved woman, who most certainly had exquisite taste in clothes. I absolutely adored it." -Lisa Smilor, Associate Executive Director, Council of Fashion Designers of America (CFDA) "Clothes are ultimately ephemeral. Good books aren't. Jeannette Montgomery Barron has engineered a small bit of alchemy - her mother...lives on in these pages." -Jesse Kornbluth, HeadButler.com "A poignant journey through time and memory uncovers the roots of a beautiful mother-daughter relationship." Cesare Cunaccia,Vogue Italia. -Cesare Cunaccia,Vogue Italia "This book is a tenderhearted tribute to her mother, an interesting look back at fashion of the mid-twentieth century, and an intriguing way for readers to think about memory." -Forewordmagazine "Barron creates an inspiring and true story about the connection between fashion and memory." -AblemarleMagazine "My Mother's Clotheshas a beautiful light touch, ultimately life-affirming in the face of a terrible disease. It almost feels like a travel memoir where one is transported to another time and a charmed place - where good deeds, gracious manners, and impeccable taste prevails." -Ralph Gardner Jr, contributor to theNew York Times,Daily BeastandHuffington Post, "My Mother's Clotheshas a beautiful light touch, ultimately life-affirming in the face of a terrible disease.

"Jeannette Montgomery Barron has created the most wonderful, personal, and loving book. I know her mother would be so thrilled and touched and amazed if she could see what Barron has done in memory of her and in tribute to her. An inspiration to other daughters who are searching for ways to reach their mothers with fragile memories." -Megan Hack "What a beautiful way of remembering the glamorous and wonderful woman who happened to be her mother. I love, love, love this project, and await the book with bated breath." -Sarah Blakley-Cartwright "Elegant and restrained, and above all, deeply honest." -Debbie Gardner, "Barron captures [the clothes] in a way that gives them character, charm, personality. Juxtaposing texture and pattern, and alternating between casual composition and formal portraiture, she showcases the clothes, shoes and handbags in a manner as quirky as the collection...Through this charming little book of images and succinct commentary, she has found a way to honor her mother that suits them both." --Michelle Jones,Dallas Morning News "...Montgomery Barron has provided a portrait, not just of the arc of a life, but a place, a time. It could not be a more evocative book." -Caroline Reynolds Milbank,1stDibs.com "...dives deeper into the memories that are attached to clothes.

Eliza Honey,The New Yorker "Between the photos, shot against unexpected backgrounds (a Persian rug, a sunlit window, a field of grass), and Ms. Barron's straightforward, unsentimental prose, the book brings the clothes and the woman who wore them back to vivid life...a transporting read."
