Lavishly illustrated with more than 400 images ├╗ many never before published ├╗ Over the Top opens a window into the world of Helena Rubinstein, one of the most extravagant and wide-ranging stylemakers of the last century. Sixteen essays by renowned experts in the fields of art and interior design trace the public and private life of the celebrated cosmetics pioneer, and examine the daring prescience of her art collection and home decoration through the eyes of this self-made mogul and the century she helped define.
