Good quality at a fair price but I didn't realise they would be US TV stars and not necessarily that well known in the UK, so I was disappointed.

The glamour of television
20 April 2007
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
Tom Tierney's "Glamorous Television Stars" is a lovely edition among his various books depicting stars and fashion. It runs the gamut from Loretta Young's swirling gowns from the '50s to Sarah Jessica Parker in cutting edge fashion from the more current "Sex & The City". There are some beautiful dolls and costumes in this book, including Dinah Shore, Tina Louise, Diahann Carroll, Joan Collins, Vanna White, Cher and Fran Drescher.
The only complaints I could have against this book are the dolls which don't really resemble the stars (the dolls of Susan Lucci and Farrah Fawcett don't look like the actual stars very much) and less than inspiring fashion choices. Linda Evans has a choice of two gowns of similar style from "Dynasty"; why not a Western outfit from "The Big Valley" as an alternate? Heather Locklear's dull outfit from the short-lived series "L.A.X." should have been cut in favor of one of the mini-skirted business suits Heather made famous on "Melrose Place". Likewise, Pamela Anderson wore some outrageous fashions on her syndicated action-adventure series "V.I.P."; why choose to depict a torn T-shirt and cut-off jean shorts from that series?
These are minor quibbles, however. On the whole, "Glamorous Television Stars" is an excellent volume of Tom Tierney's fine Hollywood fashion art and attention to detail.
