Customer Reviews

A must for anybody who has an interest in music and fashion...seriously!!!

Growing up anywhere usually revolves about two major things in your life...what you listen too and what you wear! Paul Gorman has created here one of the most important must haves for anyone who has an interest in music and fashion. This book has it all and I cannot recommend it highly enough, filled with fantastic and rare pictures it takes the reader on a fantastic journey about The Look.

What a great book!

Wow - I'm amazed that this book hasn't got more attention. First off it looks like a coffee table bookw ith loads of good pix and graphics - there is one of McLaren & Westwood from 1971 which is incredible. I've got all the books and pix relating to the Sex Pistols and this pair but I've never seen that one before.Anyway there are loads of examples for everyone - the Elvis pix are great as are the Beatles and Mod ones. But once you start reading it really comes into its own.There are interviews with the guy that made Elvis's clothes way back in teh eraly 50s as well as The Beatles tailor but also up to date people like Wayne Hemingway.My own criticism is that there isn't enough on American style but I guess since we stole a whole lot from the limeys it could be justified.Can't recommend it enough.Pete
