2.0 out of 5 stars This book is fine, but there is much better, January 13, 2001

This review is from: The First Four Seconds: Things Successful Men Know About Dressing for Power (Paperback)

This books is not as helpful or convincing in its presentation as the classic work in this field, Molloy's New Dress For Success, although this is shorter and perhaps easier to read. The author also lost some credibility with me when she suggested that "Mountblanc" is the top-end pen to own(the brand is spelled "Montblanc"). Molloy takes a much more empirical, research-based approach to the study of clothing and its effect on others. Although his work is now a bit dated, this book is not much more recent.

4.0 out of 5 stars Easy read and good insight for young executive, May 23, 2002

This book contains several good points to keep in mind as you shop for your next purchase. I am aware that there are several large volumes on the subject, but I want to read something that I can remember and not something that I have to lug to the store with me. This is a decent book.
