By A Customer
I loved this book when first came out in the mid-eighties and am ecstatic to see this new reprint. It's one fashion book that should be in print forever since the information it offers is timeless. It's got a really original and interesting take on what makes for an elite monied look, and then goes on to tell you just how to achieve that look for yourself, even without a trust fund backing you up. It's also great fun to read. You have to admire Feldon (admittedly one of my favorite fashion authors) for writing a style book almost 17 years ago that is is still relevant and right on target today. I highly reccommend it!
