Today I will talk about The Little Black Dress: How to Dress Perfectly for Any Occasion by Tracy Martin, published in 2012 by CICO Books!
Theme: This book is a fashion and style guide. It gives advice on how to improve your wardrobe and maintain your style. Quoting Jean-Paul Gaultier in the Introduction, the book holds that "elegance is a question of personality more than one's clothing".
Strong point(s): The Little Black Dress contains a lot of good, practical advice on style and on which clothes go with which . The history of fashion feature is also great! For every section, there is history too -- not only of the little black dress but also of the pant suit, the skirt, the shirt, famous and iconic dresses and everything! You can also find material on caring for clothes and accessories. I especially love the how to care for your jewels part!
Verdict: This is a book which is both useful and pretty! The edition is lovely, with cute illustrations done by Lord Dunsby, luxury paper and its own pretty bookmark. Love it!
So long from The Lipstick Papers Review until the next weekend! Meanwhile, be well and have beauty always with you!
