Dress Your Best: The Complete Guide to Finding the Style That's Right for Your Body

Great book lots of helpful tips.

excellent

Very good book, quick delivery, many thanks

Feel Fab at 50 I picked up this book when I was in the USA about 2 years ago. As an image professional, I thought it had the best array of body shapes I had seen to date, especially as it included men. I use it for my work so I think it's a great buy and my own copy is falling to bits as testament to that. As an individual reader, it probably lets you down as there are only 3 or 4 pages that relate to you. The clothes aren't always wisely chosen either, though they do cover casual, work and formal for each of the sections.

Ok book

The book had great pictures and solid advise. The sizing was a little confusing at first (I am from the UK; they are American sizes) but once you got past this the book was useful. It was refreshing to see the larger busted amongst us being given advise that made the models in the pictures look glamourous not frumpy as they sometimes do in Trinny and Susannah. The only down side for me was that it had a section for men - could have used the space with more ideas for women!

El libro esta muy interesante, con muchos ejemplos, me encanto!

I just loved this book, best till now i read on style tips. Body types are explained really well. It's a must have.

Love it. Such a good resource. Lots of good ideas, all very figure-specific. Great advice.

Am Anfang findet man eine gute Auflistung mit Kleidungsstücken die man braucht um für alle Anlässe in jeder Jahreszeit etwas passendes parat zu haben. Die Liste ist sehr überschaubar und zweckmäßig.Überhaupt ist das ganze Buch sehr nah am Leben. Wichtig ist, dass einem die Kleidung passt und der Schnitt zur eigenen Figur passt. Dann sieht man immer gut angezogen aus, egal welche Größe.Beispiele findet man auf de folgenden Seiten, auf denen alle möglichen Figuren vorgestellt werde und die besten Schnitte besprochen werden. Mit echten Frauen, die echte Körper haben. Sehr Super!Es geht im Buch tatsächlich nur darum welche Kleidungsstücke sinnvoll sind und wie man das für sich passende (Schnitt, Sitz) für sich raussucht. Ein bestimmter Stil wird nicht vorgegeben. Das finde ich sehr gut. Ein Buch das Raum für Persönlichkeit lässt und gleichzeitig hilft sich beim Kleidungskauf besser und erfolgreicher zu orientieren.

I find myself referring to this book time and again because of the beautiful color pictures. Many other style books use artist's drawings, but this book features real live people (not professional models with their ridiculous Barbie proportions) with different body types and this adds another dimension. You will be amazed at some of the transformations, and you instantly see what the authors are talking about - it was easy to actually apply the guidelines.Regarding the reviews which suggest that only a few pages are relevant to any one person - this is not true! Many tips which are relevant to everyone are included in the body types which may not exactly match yours. I found all the examples interesting and informative.No one style book can do it all. For fantastic information regarding fit, I recommend The Pocket Stylist by Kendall Farr. For figuring out your style and many other organizational tips, I suggest Nothing to Wear? by Jesse Garza and Joe Lupo. With these three books, you are set to transform your wardrobe no matter what your body type and save money by minimizing the wrong purchases.
