Mama Couture Author: Moya Kate

ISBN: 9780646542416 Format: Paperback Number Of Pages: 384 Published: 4 February 2013 Country of Publication: AU Dimensions (cm): 23.4 x 15.3 x 2.01 Description: MAMA COUTURE follows Til Fisher's pregnancy from conception to labour and her first year of parenting. Each chapter introduction is narrated by Til's little baby, who sets a hilarious context for each stage of pregnancy and baby's development. But this book isn't just for pregnant mums: it's very much for working mums too. When Til's baby is just six months old, Til loses her job at an Australian fashion label and she makes the risky decision to start her own ethical business, a fashion label that uses women in developing countries, who have been set up in business through microfinance initiatives, as her manufacturing source. Soon Til is traveling to Paris and New York, to tackle the icons of couture and the budgets of giants. The novel looks at the contemporary dilemmas women face in the developed world, as well as acknowledging the frightening maternal and child health statistics in the developing world. It puts our rampant consumerism under the microscope and reminds us that all babies really need is-love-and happy parents, good health care, and vigorous corporate and social responsibility.
