![]() I''ve bought more copies of this book to "loan" but of course no one has ever been stupid enough to return it. She''s in charge, in control and just amazing. Okay, all the stereotypes might be true for this one, but it''s a classic. If you''re looking for some insights into fashion and/or the fashion world, look else where. if you like name dropping (and I admit she did drop some impressive names) - this book is for you. Childhood, young adult, married, Europe, here, there, everywhere. This was simply the rambling lifetime memories of a well respected player from the fashion field. Nothing but nothing in this book had to do with fashion, the fashion business, nor the intellectual exercise that goes into fashion. I thought I''d gain some insights to the world of fashion (an area of life that I''m not famailiar with) but I was very disappointed. ![]() In this glittering autobiography she takes us around the world with her, revealing her obsession with fashion high and low-pink plastic poodles, for example-and dropping timeless sayings like, "As you know, the French like the French very much." A fabulous, witty read. ![]() The best-selling autobiography of this century's most formidable arbiter of elegance, Diana Vreeland.Īs fashion editor of Harper's Bazaar and editor-in-chief of Vogue, Diana Vreeland-and her passion, charm, insouciance, and genius for style-energized and inspired the fashion world for fifty years. ![]()
