Review:

"The book does the heavy lifting for instructors wishing to dip their toes into the fashion pool. The author’s past experience as a fashion journalist and current position as programme leader for a fashion journalism sequence at the University of Sunderland in the UK shine through in the book’s insightful content and logical organization... Also of value are the book’s chockablock industry insights from today’s most prominent editors, writers, stylists, and publishers, among others." - Elizabeth Hendrickson, Ohio University
