The White Dress is the third in Nathalie Lé ger's award-winning triptych of books about women who &ldquo through their oeuvre, transform their lives into a mystery&rdquo (ELLE). In Exposition, Lé ger wrote about the Countess of Castiglione, the most photographed woman of the nineteenth century in Suite for Barbara Loden she took up the actress and filmmaker Barbara Loden here, Lé ger grapples with the tragic 2008 death of Italian performance artist Pippa Bacca, who was raped and murdered while hiking from Italy to the Middle East in a wedding dress to promote world peace. A harrowing meditation on the risks women encounter, in life and in art, The White Dress also brings to a haunting conclusion Lé ger's personal interrogation&mdash sustained across all three books&mdash of her relationship with her mother and the desire for justice in our lives.
