WOW

This book, which chronicles the struggles and the triumphs experienced by the organziers of fashion shows to benefit AIDS, makes a wonderful addition to any library. The profiles of the famous people the author worked with (especially Elizabeth Montgomery) as well as the heroic victims of this devastating disease will make you laugh, cry and, best of all HOPE. One of the best books of it's kind ever written!

Stars, fashion, gossip, laughter, and tears.

I never got to go to the star studded fashion show extraveganza'a that Mr. Anketell writes about, but now I can via his wonderful book, and be both in the audience AND backstage. Out of tragedy and tears came beauty and joy, and all that is in between, and Mr. Anketell tells it all with humor, pathos, and genuine affection. Kudos! Brava! Encore! A perfect gift.
