Could Have Been Much Better,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Body Shape Bible (Hardcover)
As a fan of Trinny and Susannah, I have always appreciated their guidance on how to dress for your specific body type. I found this book to be covering the same information, except not as well presented as in previous books.
Once you discover your body type, you can really only use 15 or so pages out of entire 288 page book. You are offered only 3 looks as ideal for your shape, Casual, Smart, and Party. I would have appreciated more, especially considering some of the outfits were not seasonally appropriate. And as I flipped through the information on other body types, it was noticable that things such as swimsuits and accessories where discussed with some body types and not others. This should have been addressed with every body type. Also, because this book is shipped from the UK, the shopping section becomes useless since they recommend shops within the United Kingdom only, unless you anticipate traveling overseas soon. The shopping guide in "T & S The Survival Guide" is far superior. Perhaps an updated US version will be offered later. Wait and buy it then.

Nothing New Here,
By Martha B. "Muff" (Florida) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Body Shape Bible (Paperback)
While the concept of dressing for your body type is valuable there is nothing new offered here. I learned a lot more from The Pocket Stylist by Kendall Farr. She was one of the first to present the idea that you have to dress for your body type and she covers the subject more clearly and intelligently. If your goal is to understand shape and proportion first then buy her book instead.
