Gorgeous Book! 18 Feb 2005
Format:Turtleback
I really love this book, it's in a great format with loads of good information and the fact that it isn't chock full of models helps too.. Lots of drawings of clothes makes it feels as if this book will last, it won't be totally dated in a year. Gives you help on what to wear with what, necessary items of clothing to buy, tips on combinations you mightn't have thought of and so on. Covers everything, if you ask me! I will definitely be referring to this when I'm redoing my sad wardrobe. :)

This book is fantastic! Very colourful, descriptive 14 chapters (with soooo many pictures) covering each garment such as skirts, shoes, jeans and jackets. Provides fit and styling tips, the best type of garment suited for each body type, what kind of garments they suggest you to have in your closet and how to wear a specific garment in soooo many different ways-e.g. for evening and daytime. It also contains further sections such as 'rules for shopping' and how to take care of your clothes. So easy to read and refer back to. This is perfect for everyone (and at all ages) who loves shopping!!

I have bought nearly every fashion book there is, and by far, this is my favorite! It totally beats trinny and susannah, InStyle and all of the other books out there. One thing that is especially good, is that it shows photos real clothes, not drawings. Also, it is packed with photograps, not all the text (which is also necessary, but in moderation) that in many other of my books. It aslo deals with how much ou really need of everything and helps doing the hard job of getting rid of your "old friends" read, the clothes you bought for some good reason you end up never wearing. Now I only hope for a Lucky 2!

Great Book!
This book is the needle in the haystack of books that try to offer you advise, but just really don't get there. I found the pictures and catagorisation realistic and helpful. Read more
