This review is from: Diana, Princess of Wales, Paper Doll: The Charity Auction Dresses (Dover Royal Paper Dolls) (Paperback)

This book gives a brief history of the dresses. The illustrations are quite good. He actually manages to capture Diana very well in his presentation. If you want to see the dresses that were at the Charity Auction this is definately the one to get. The book is printed on high quality paper so you are sure to enjoy this one for a long time.

This review is from: Diana, Princess of Wales, Paper Doll: The Charity Auction Dresses (Dover Royal Paper Dolls) (Paperback)

This is an excellent book with 1 doll and 31 famous dresses drawn by Tom Tierney. A perfect reminder of just how beautiful Princess Diana was, and her likeness and poise have been perfectly captured.
