Summary:
"Long before celebrity stylists became as renowned as the Oscar-winning film stars they advise, the legendary costume designer Edith Head was dressing Hollywood's most fashionable women and men on screen and off and lending her sartorial wisdom to women across the country on radio and television. In 1959 she published a best-selling memoir and style guide... Now an adaptation of 'The dress doctor' is back in print in the special edition - an alphabetical romp through the art of getting dressed and dressing Hollywood - with the best advice and stories culled word for word from the original book." -- Book jacket.
