There seems to be no one more qualified or equipped to ponder or even, dare I say, dictate 'quality, taste, and style' than Tim." -Sarah Jessica Parker, actor/producer

He discusses every aspect of creating and maintaining your personal style: how to dress for various occasions, how to shop (from designer to chain to vintage stores), how to pick a fashion mentor, how to improve your posture, find the perfect fit, and more. He'll challenge every reader-whether a seasoned fashionista or a style neophyte-to "make it work!"

June 10, 2009: Every young lady should have some of the knowledge contained in this book. It might even help some teenagers to stand up straight- "Shoulders away from the ears". It is also great to help an individualistic teenager to have confidence that she doesn't have to wear it just because everyone else is!
I am older (old), but Tim Gunn has such style and kindheartedness. This book brings out the best in a person to be an individual not one of a group. He puts it simply, quietly and with style. Everyone can be chic, but everyone is chic in the same clothes.Mr. Gunn you did it for me and it is a wonderful keep for reference and future referral bookThanks.Carol
