The best fashion book I've ever owned!:

Hurrah! Stacy and Clinton have given us a way to take them with us whenever we go shopping! I was browsing in the bookstore not too long ago and lo and behold, there was Dress Your Best, right next to What Not to Wear, by Trinny and Susanna. I must confess I have to agree with the previous reviewer, Stacy and Clinton did a superior job, especially by using real women (and men!) as models for the different body types.

About four useful pages:

As the description says the book includes advice for several different body types. The problem this causes is that there are only about four pages per type (eight if you include the full page pictures). The pages that are there don't really have much to them.
There were some other pages with some generic content but there really isn't any true substance to this book, save your money and time (most of your time will be returning it)

It is most likely that the reader, no matter much how closely she/he can identify with one of the models in the book, her/his body shape is still very different from that model! Myself for example, I am a petite, I am an hourglass... more info
