Reviews

Grade 4-8-This once-over-lightly introduction to the world of fashion design conveys tremendous excitement and motion in the bright and bold full-color photography that splashes across every page. Profiles of famous designers are interspersed with information on the types of jobs available in the field and the education needed to be successful. The history of fashion design, the impact of technology, and the importance of trade shows gain mention. Maze includes spreads on terminology, international attire, fashion trivia, a "who's who" list of designers, and even the process of making silk. She closes with a profile of a girl's success at designing and marketing fingerless fleece hand protectors. A fun update to Miriam Moss's Fashion Designer (Crestwood House, 1991).
