Well worth the money
A hard cover book of cloth, nice quality. While fashion is a forever changing thing, like the sky, this book reveals way more than just fashion. It speaks of what makes a well-groomed person. Sage advice that girls and women need. Today, women and girls have no taste and look and act like slobs. And attitudes are vulgar. If you appreciate reading about the fashion sense, this book is for you. For example, the hats in this book are outdated today, but you can apply the fashion sense about hats as you dress today. Fashion is forever changing, but fashion sense in the ways of simplicity, good taste, and grooming will always have the highest standards. Mr. Dior says it with elegance and grace.

F is for Fabulous! (Okay sorry if that was corny but I am MAJORLY excited about this!)
This is a really great book for anyone interested in fashion on any level. For each letter of the alphabet, this dictionary gives you about 3-4 different terms of fashion. It could be a word that describes how to wear something, or an accessory to go with an outfit. For example, B for brooch, binding of textiles, or C for cuffing, couture. I love this book, because I am becoming more and more interested in fashion and love to learn more from the most respected people and companies in the fashion world.

Short and to the Point
This book has short entries listed in alphabetical order. There are black-and-white photographs. Everything in the book is touched upon briefly, but there are plenty of useful tips.

Cute but Basic
I believe that girls who are interested in fashion will already know most of what is in this little book. It really is just meant to be a small dictionary of fashion terns like "brocade" or "peplum", etc. For a gal or guy just starting out it may he helpful.

Great (small) coffee table book for your fashion lover!
My wife has an affinity for fashion books, and wanted to begin growing her collection. This is the first book I purchased to get her collection started. She loves the book, and has added it to our coffee table. The hardcover book has a bit of texture to the cover, and is printed on very nice paper. As the title states, this is a great little book to get for your loved one as a "just because" gift. It's priced great, and with Prime you can't beat the free shipping! Amazon also has special boxes that they use for their books, so you're not getting some huge box just for a book. Good job Amazon!

My wife LOVES this book!
My wife is my fashion consultant, so when I saw this book offered on Amazon (at the BEST price I could find on the web) I had to get it for her. Well, to say that she was THRILLED is an understatement. She loves the classic fashion looks and this book was right up her alley. Guys - if your wife (or girlfriend) is a fashionista - GET HER THIS BOOK!!! She'll love you for it.
