I loved this book... Fantastic photos galore as I had expected, but this book is far more than a glossy picture gallery. It gives a brilliant insight into Kate's universally admired and coveted personal style and sheds some light on the key players whose influence has helped to shape Kate Moss as a world style icon.
`Kate Moss: Style' is thoroughly researched, readable and inspirational. Buy this book!

This was the first book of katie's that i read and i really enjoyed it. She is very forward about everything she says and isn't afraid to speak what's on her mind! Thats what i love about it, it's just about her. It's a great read and i would recommend anyone to get it, it would be money well spent! :)

This book is quite simply awful. Trinny and Susannah are scraping the barrel with this book and have obviously run out of ideas. They look terrible in a selection of joke shop wigs and ill fitting clothes and have no real understanding of what the icons they have chosen looked like. Terribly researched stocking filler rushed out for the Christmas market - avoid!

This book is a really wonderful present for all costumers and especially for those who is familiar with excellent quality of Janet Arnold's books. Not only "Patterns of Fashion 4" has all the values of previous Arnold's publications, it has more!
As usual, the book is divided into 2 parts: theoretical and practical, latter including patterns and drawings of artefacts.
Just to point out some definite values - for one, there are very many color(!) photographs in theoretical chapter. It's possible to see any details of textile, embroidery, lace or simple seam. Also, theoretical chapter is 50% of book (which is more than in "PF 3") and material is well structured by clothing types - Shirts & smock (men's, women's), Neckswear (ruffs, ... Read More:

This is a gorgeous,sumptuous book. It works precisely because it let's Vivienne's clothes speak for themselves. The full page glossy pictures of the most influential designer of the 20th Century almost make you salivate. I used to shop at World's End and wore the original Pirate range, but even then I'd still forgotten just how stunning it was. If you are interested in fashion, music, history, art, literature, anarchy and chaos, then this is for you.

Fabulous Frocks considers two time frame periods - 1908 to 1958 and 1959 to 2008. The book has a selection of mainly photographic images of varying quality and one or two fashion illustrations of yesteryear that are good examples of the visual idiom. However, if looking at this time span of years in terms of women's fashionable representation is of interest to you - do not let the prospect of a relative few `iffy' images put you off - this book has many images that makes it more than worthwhile.
If you have thumbed-through a number of women's fashion books that focus on image - then many of the photos in this book you will have seen before - yet again, the book is made worthwhile by a selection of images you may not have seen before. ... Read More:
