Great prom shots of the 60's-80's

True, hearing the stories of those pictured in this book would be great, but just seeing the pictures of the tux's and dresses from the 70's and 80's - hilarious. It is so interesting to see how styles have changed over the years. I think I'd like to see some updates and additions to this book - to include the 90's would be great, too. I went to prom in the early 90's and remember the black velvet and shiny fabric seeping in from the 80's, we looked HOT.

Awesome Book!

I definitely suggest this book, it provides a unique perspective of proms past. In fact, if you look at the last photo that encompasses two color pages, you can see me in all my 80's glory. I am thanks to Ms. Stein, in the definitive tome for cool retro prom style.

Take a trip back to high school !

This is the second book I've read by this author. The first was "Cheerleader: Ready? Okay!", and I loved them both. She provides a complete history of the prom as we know it, and the photos are fantastic. A perfect coffee table book and a great gift.
