Great Wardrobe Building Concept! A little dated...

This book is excellent in illustrating how you can take 8 wardrobe pieces and have 15 to 22 complete outfits. The concept is called "fashion math". There are also photos of real women with figure shapes called: triangle, diamond, circle, rectangle, hourglass and V. Instructions and drawings show how to dress each shape for balance. Frankly, I agree with the previous review; Lane Bryant should put out an update using the same principles! The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because some of the styles are no longer available in stores.

A VERY HELPFUL BOOK WHICH DESERVES AN ENCORE

I recieved this book second-hand and it was already a few years old but the information it contained was very helpful. At the time I was a teenager and I was struggling to create an image for my self. I was overweight and found it difficult put together a wardrobe for myself without spending a lot of money. This book helped me a lot. The tips that I learned from this book have helped me to this day and have also led me to a career in the fashion industry. Although the book was published in the 80's, the basic information is still current. Many current magazines (as well as books)have articles based on the same premise as this book. Lane Bryant should publish an updated edition.
