5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful fashions from the Belle Epoque, April 23, 2000

By	Lisa Roznik (Cleveland, OH) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Great Fashion Designs of the Belle Epoque: Paper Dolls in Full Color (Paperback)

This is one of the most beautiful sets of paper dolls I have, well drawn with great attention to detail and short historical notes on each dress inside the back cover. There are a lot of costumes in this book, about thirty, and two beautiful dolls. It covers fashion from 1890 to 1919, with dresses from great designers like Worth and Paquin. Tom Tierney's paper dolls are wonderful, and this is one of his best.

5.0 out of 5 stars Belle Epoque, April 14, 2005

By	Nevada Snow - See all my reviews

This review is from: Great Fashion Designs of the Belle Epoque: Paper Dolls in Full Color (Paperback)

Anyone who loves fashion history will enjoy this book. The illustrations are evocative of the lives of fashionable women 100 years ago.
I especially liked the dolls themselves, clad in faithful depictions of the underwear of the era.
The selection of costumes is superb. It is clear to see the development of women's dress from 1899 until 1919, from heavily corseted hourglass figures laden with ruffles, lace and embroidery, to the fantasies of the early teens and finally the simplification of dress leading up to the 1920-s.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best artist of paper dolls I have ever seen!, September 14, 2007

By	C. Ford-Barbiero (Utah) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I have both paper doll books (Princess Diana and Prince Charles Fashion Paper Dolls in Full Color; and Diana, Princess of Wales, Paper Doll: The Charity Auction Dresses [Paper Doll Series]) by Tom Tierney. I love his artistry and his attention to detail. I got the Charity Auction paper doll book as a gift and searched for more finding the first paper doll book that also included Prince Charles. I added both books to my scrapbook on Diana - I still love looking at these pages. They are both excellent as are all the paper doll books he produces. I also have books by Tom Tierney on Pope John Paul II, Jackie Kennedy Onasis, and one with Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Phillip. I would encourage anyone interested in collecting, using the books for school reports, or finding your favorite subject in paper dolls, to look for this artist. He does excellent work.
