Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

'In the 1950s, American women took more sartorial inspiration from film, and in 1959 Head published The Dress Doctor, her bestselling autobiography and style guide. The Dress Doctor: Prescriptions for Style from A to Z is an adaption of that book, presented as an illustrated paperback. Bill Donovan's illustrations give Head's epigrams vitality but is her advice still relevant half a century later?' --Financial Times Weekend, May 2011

Reseña del editor:

Before there was a throng of celebrity stylists permeating our culture, the legendary Edith Head was dressing Hollywood's most fashionable women and men on screen and off, and lending her sartorial wisdom to eager women across the country. With more than 80 chic, colourful, especially commissioned illustrations, this charming volume is brimming with a mix of informative and amusing fashion sound bites from a to z. Readers will relish Head's classic style tips, benefiting from her timeless expertise on developing a personal style, assessing one's figure and dressing to flatter it, building a wardrobe, and judging quality. They'll love her many entertaining inside stories on dressing Hollywood's leading men and women - Audrey Hepburn, Grace Kelly, Cary Grant, Marlene Dietrich, and many more - and looking at Bil Donovan's gorgeous re-creations of Head's most famous costumes.
