4.0 out of 5 stars Quite insightful!, May 14, 2004

Janice (Arlington, VA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: How to Buy Your Perfect Wedding Dress (Paperback)
"How to Buy Your Perfect Wedding Dress" by Ronald Rothstein, et al, basically deals with the the selection of a wedding dress. The authors went into details of what dresses are suitable for what body types and they touched on factors such as the silhouettes, sleeves or no sleeves, trains, the back, necklines and bodies. They also provided information on accessories such as veils, shoes, lingerie, and gloves which are quite helpful to the bride-to-be. In addition, the authors also gave advice on where to get the wedding dresses, and how to take care and preserve the them.

I think this is a useful book to have for those (including me) who have no idea of how to select the right wedding dress. The authors provided basic to very detailed information that I think would be good to have before actually selecting a dress. At the very least, I learn some useful terminologies that will help me when I actually want to talk to the wedding consultant.
