I was
pretty excited to get this book. Lately I have been into fashion and wanted to
get my first fashion book. This one looked pretty promising. It was the 40th
anniversary of the book that first appeared in the 70s. I read some great
things about this book, so my hopes for it were high.
But I
was sadly disappointed. I assumed the book would have some of its original elements,
but mixed with more modern fashion. It wasn’t. The entire book was the same as
the original; expect a foreword that was written by Tim Gunn. I felt since it was very true to the 1970s
fashion it had no real value for today’s audience, unless of course you are
into dressing like you stepped out of a time machine. But on top of everything,
I found it greatly disappointing when I saw some very inappropriate pictures
featured in the book. That’s the last thing I would expect in a fashion book!
There was no need to add these certain pictures! I am definitely going to be
getting rid of this book. And I’m not even going to give it to Goodwill, in
fear of a child accidently flipping through the book. I do NOT recommend this
book to anyone. It was horrible!!
I know
this was a short review, but I don’t what else to say about this book, expect
it was completely terrible!
I received this book from Blogging for Books.
