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

Description

Featuring 26 different male and female body types, this work offers advice on dressing for every occasion (work, weekend and evening). In the bestselling tradition of "Trinny & Suzanne's What Not to Wear", but with a broader reach, this is an authoritative and irreverent fashion guide that matches every conceivable male and female body type with the perfect work, casual, and evening attire. Underlying Clinton and Stacy's approach is the belief that we can all look great, regardless of body type and they bring the same philosophy to their book. The structure couldn't be simpler, or more useful: 18 women and 8 men top heavy, bottom-heavy, and everything in between will be pictured in a black bathing suit (yes, our hosts will volunteer as two of the body types!). Three subsequent spreads will then show the individual outfitted in the perfect work, weekend, and evening ensemble for their type. Sprinkled throughout will be boxed fashion and style hints that are effective for everyone, not just the body type pictured.

CLINTON KELLY honed his fashion expertise as a magazine editor. Most recently, he was Executive Editor of DNR, a New York-based weekly men's fashion and retail trade magazine. Prior to that he was a Contributing Editor at Marie Claire. STACY LONDON began her fashion career with Vogue, rising to become Senior Fashion Editor at Mademoiselle. She has worked with a number of celebrities, including Kate Winslet and Liv Tyler, as well as on fashion shows for such designers as Rebecca Taylor and Vivienne Tam. Over the last two years, her advertising clients have included Wonderbra, Covergirl, Target, and Levi's.
