HUTTON WILKINSON, AUTHOR
Four best selling books published by Abrams showcase Tony Duquette and Hutton Wilkinson’s extraordinary oeuvre representing seventy-nine combined years of creativity.
Tony Duquette’s Dawnridge
“Walk on the Wild Side. Tony Duquette’s fantastical designs strut their stuff for a new generation.” — Architectural Digest
Tony Duquette
“Tony Duquette. He always made me gasp.” — Dominick Dunne
More is More
“More Is More-what a way to live! Be as decadent as Duquette! Dress with excess, as much as to impress and let your Dawnridge be your utopia!” — John Galliano
Jewelry
“Each piece Hutton creates seems like the key to a magical kingdom. Every single one of a kind creation has a story, and in this book, Hutton lets you glimpse underneath his magician’s cloak. It’s a chance to see the world through the eyes of Hutton Wilkinson-and what a beautiful world it is.” — Glenda Bailey, Editor-in-Chief Harper’s Bazaar
Another double boxed edition titled The Walk To Elsie’s is a novel of historic fiction, set between 1940 and 1950, telling the story of the first ten years of Tony Duquette’s career and the last ten years of his mentor, Elsie de Wolfe’s life.
As described by Harper’s Bazaar: “THE PERFECT LITERARY GIFT: THE WALK TO ELSIE'S is a gilded work of historical fiction and covetable coffee table eye candy”
Gaspar Brown and the Mystery of the Gasparilla Succession
Gaspar Brown and the Mystery of the Seminole Spring
Gaspar Brown and the Mystery of the Necronomicon
“Gaspar Brown’s adventures is a mix of Robert Lewis Stevenson and J.K. Rowling in terms of character development and enjoyment. It’s a real page turner for readers of all ages.” -Amazon Review
“Best Selling author, Hutton Wilkinson, brings you young Gaspar Brown and his sidekick, Alex Mendoza, in a series of adventures set at home in Florida and around the world. Hutton has written a series of page-turners. I loved reading the Hardy Boys growing up, but Gaspar Brown takes adventure to a new level. From a helicopter ride to a secret former Nazi base in Antarctica to visiting La Recoleta cemetery in Buenos Aires, or hitching a ride on a friend's Gulfstream V jet to get back to Florida. These books are so well researched, they’re a history lesson as well as a novel. No one does a better job mixing fact with fiction than Hutton. I can't wait for the next one!” -Amazon Review

“The lake at Dawnridge and the Indian temple that I created are my newest favorite additions to Dawnridge. The area at the very bottom of the garden had always been neglected by the Duquettes and had always screamed for water. By putting this garden and pond together, I have altered the look and use of the garden immeasurably. I think Tony and Beegle would be pleased!” Hutton Wilkinson, Vanity Fair, October 2009
