Dress Your Best: The Complete Guide to Finding the Style That's Right for Your Body

I love the show What Not To Wear. I thought that with the experience Stacey London had working at Vogue, the book would be well written and helpful. Not so much. It's a good book for people who know nothing about fashion--much like the unfortunately dressed people they ambush. Each body type gets a few pages dedicated to casual wear, work wear, evening wear, etc. I donated my copy to the library.

I love love love their show, but this book is not what i wanted. this focuses on dressing for your body type. if you want that info then buy it - if not look elsewhere

Clinton and Stacy are very down to earth in describing fashion success in a way anyone can relate to and put into use. The book has pictures to make it easier to find your body type (yes, Clinton and Stacy even included themselves). I found it enjoyable to read and easy to remember their hints when I went shopping. Makeovers are possible. A must buy before that next shopping trip.

This book is amazing!! And unlike what some people are saying, the rest of the book is full of little tips that anyone can use (for example, the top 5 pieces for work and top 5 pieces of statement jewelry everyone should have). This book is a thousand times better than the British version with Trinny and Susannah (who have a weird obsession with wearing dresses over pants and... um... hair accessories that look like mobiles). The only way this book could be better is if they showed like 9 different looks for each body type instead of just 3. stacey and clinton, we need more advice!!

I love What Not to Wear, but I was very disappointed in this book, especially after reading the reviews. The In Style or Lucky Manual has much more useful information. While this book has information for all types of bodies for men and women, as well as a must have wardrobe list, it is seriously lacking because there will not be more than three pages that pertain to you. If you can borrow a copy from a friend or library, and then take notes on the tips, then do that - because buying the book is a huge waste of money. The information is so limited that will be of any use to one person that it quite simply is not worth buying.
