The Thoughtful DresserLinda Grant  As Linda Grant so rightly points out in this thought provoking book on our interest in clothes, “We are dressed as soon as we are born and when we die we are dressed again”. For centuries, an interest in clothes has been dismissed as the trivial focus of vain, empty-headed women. And yet we all know that clothes matter, because how we choose to dress ourselves defines who we are. From the teenager who needs to be part of the fashion pack to the woman feeling invisible at 50, the truth is that how we look and what we wear tells a story. And what a story. The Thoughtful Dresser tells us how a woman’s hat saved her life in Nazi Germany, celebrates the pleasure of adornment and savours the sheer joy of finding the perfect outfit. This book is the thinking woman’s guide to our relationship with what we wear, why we want to look our best and why it matters to us. A must read for any woman who has ever found the perfect dress, had a fashion disaster or been ignored by shop assistants half her age! |
