A single source on how to look your best Sep 30, 2004
By Jocelyne
"French lady"
I am a French woman living in the US and have been looking for a book to teach my teenage daughter all the things that French women know about dressing well. This is THE book. It has everything. It covers subjects that may be covered elsewhere such as body type and flattering style, fit, how to build a wardrobe, what to invest in and what to have fun with. What I found most valuable, though, was how the author dispels the myths that fashion magazines promote. For example, she tells you how she prepares for a photoshoot and erases the myth of effortless good looks. She advocates that looking good is not about wearing the latest fashion, but knowing what makes you look good and wearing it. She outlines a basic wardrobe of timeless high quality basics that flatter and supplement with trendier and cheaper items that are fun but will not last as long in your wardrobe. This is how I dress and I can testify that it works.
I will be for ever grateful to my grandmother for teaching me to recognize when a garment fits and when it does not. Therefore, my highest mark in this book goes to the two pages explaining how to tell if a jacket fits. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
If you want just one book to teach you how to be stylish, this is the one. If you want to further explore how French women dress, look at "Chic and Slim" by Ann Baronne.

A book every woman who wants to look her best should own Feb 16, 2004
By Marianne In the sea of so called 'fashion experts', Farr is a real standout. Her approach to style differs greatly in that it instructs women how to honestly assess their wardrobes and logically pinpoint their individual body type. She clarifies how to flatter any figure (including plus sizes), incorporate trends and individual style, mix and match pieces, shop on a budget and avoid falling victim to common fashion mishaps. The book isn't limited to just clothing - bras, stockings accessories and tips from beauty experts are also thoroughly covered. Best of all there are pages and pages of tips, places to shop and stylist secret weapons that even the most fashion savvy girl probably doesn't know. My favorite section of the book is 'Your Tailor is Your Best Friend' which details everything from having a garment fit to having a piece custom made. Unlike other guides I have read, this book is written without condescension and truly aims to make all women feel beautiful and stylish. This book is not only an incredibly useful tool but is also a great read. Farr writes with humor and gives the reader a number of hilarious personal, real women and celebrity anecdotes. This is without a doubt the fashion guide to buy. I have given a few copies as gifts and my friends loved it too.

Very useful, very informative Aug 17, 2005
By imported beer
"henotheist"
Perhaps the single most vital thing I learned from this book is the all important shoulder to hip ratio and definition of waist that determines what shape you are. I myself, and countless other women tend to be so obsessed with perceived huge hips that we all dress like pears and wonder why we look lopsided. As someone with shoulders in proportion to my hips and a very defined waist, I should have been dressing very differently.
What this book will tell you:
1. This book will tell you how to dress for your specific body type, including fabrics and lengths that will look best on you.
2. It will give you ideas on indispensibles, including where to buy them, where to splurge and where to skimp. It will also tell you how to go bargain hunting without looking like you did.
3. It will tell you how best to work with your tailor, what is possible, what is not.
4. I am not a plus sized woman, but if I was,this book would be a godsend in many ways. Since Farr was stylist for plus sized women as well, she does not focus on a `dress in all black ensembles to look your slimmest' as though every curvy woman is ashamed of her shape. She helps women make style choices that flatter her existing shape.
What this book won't tell you:
1. What accesories work best with what outfit- apart from the obvious that a low vamp, with a high heel and pants pegged to the heel will make your legs look longer and platforms look cheesy. It does not cover much ground with accesories except for vague generalities.
2. Most of the online resources it provides are no longer there (luxlook, americanfit etc)
3. It does not give you any detailed color advice for women. The colorsyou wear are an important part of your style quotient, and some women look sickly in black, not stylish.
Some people may find her insistence on tailoring a trifle difficult to execute, but the best dressed women are always those whose clothes fit perfectly, not the ones wearing the most expensive and luxe clothes.

Okay if you fit a body type... Jan 05, 2006
By A reader I have to agree with some previous reviewers' comments:
1. The D, E, and F body types should be sections listed under A, B and C, as they are for plus sized versions of A-C, just as she does for petites. She could have used the space to address some of the following concerns.
2. She only lists 3 possible body types: heavier on bottom, equal size top and bottom, or heavier on top. But realistically, some people are flat-chested C's, or basically a B but with C shoulders, or some other combination, as another reviewer pointed out. She could have used the extra space to point out how to combine aspects of the style suggestions for cross-over types, so we could mix and match instead of having to go through it with a fine-toothed comb to figure it out ourselves (and hope we get it right!).
3. There are NO pictures to go along with her clothes. Her drawings aren't even labeled. For a book about fashion and style, there is too little information in this department. What if you don't know what something's name is? Pictures are a MUST.
4. I am so fed up with books telling women to get black clothes. Not everyone looks good in black. Some real information about color should be essential, and how to figure out what colors look good on you, if you can't afford a consultation. For this I recommend Dressing Smart in the New Millennium by JoAnna Nicholson.
5. For a "stylist" she doesn't really tell you how to develop a personal style. She assumes you are confused by fashion magazines and all the trendy clothes you see in the stores. Really, style is, yes, knowing what shapes, textures and colors look good on you, and buying things you like, but you can't just put them together any which way and look good, or have your clothes send the message you hope they are sending. That's where most people need help. She doesn't explain what a pulled-together look is or how to achieve one. For this, check out My Personal Style (http://www.mypersonalstyle.com/index.php).
6. In relation to the above, there is no "basic wardrobe scheme" or any sense of what pieces one needs to buy, or which are the most important. She just describes which types of pants, skirts, dresses, etc. would look good on your body type if you are lucky enough to fit into one of her descriptions. I like books that help you make a mix-and-match wardrobe that can serve you for all different situations simply by changing accessories, with the fewest pieces possible. I don't see anything like that here.
Aside from those comments (which, looking at it now, seems like an awful lot wrong with it!), the rest is fine, if a bit common-sense. I like all the inside-scoop type details, information about fit, and that (as another reviewer said) she writes as though she's talking to you in person, and you are an important client.

Excellent resource! Aug 21, 2005
By Leanne I bought this book about 8 or 9 months ago, and I've found it to be a great resource. In one of the initial chapters, Farr has you take very simple body measurements to determine what kind of body shape you have. Subsequent chapters give detailed guidelines on how to dress and look great depending on your shape. I already suspected some of the information she gave, but it was nice to have a systematic explanation of what looks good and why -- and to have really detailed lists of what to buy and what to stay away from! She also includes plus-sized figures, which means that this book is really useful for a wide range of shapes and sizes.
As some reviewers have mentioned, she does tend to assume that the reader has unlimited resources and can afford designer brands and custom-made clothes. She also does not include pictures or photos of clothes, as other reviewers also mentioned. Overall, though, there is enough practical, useful information in here to more than make up for these weaknesses.
I've gone back to this book again and again for ideas, and really love it! The book is small enough to take with you when out shopping, but I actually wrote down a list of my do's and don't's on a 3x5 card and just keep it in my purse for when I'm out shopping. Highly recommended book!
