Chic. That is what this book is. When I say books are chic, this book is the epitome of just that. I LOVE a good non-fiction fashion history book so much so that I have a whole bookcase dedicated to the genre. When I heard about Nancy's book, I knew it was a must-read and it did not disappoint. If you love fashion, this is for you. If you love history, this is for you. If you love New York, this is for you. The thought, research and detail Nancy put into this book is unmatched. She is an expert for a reason and this book is an investment piece if there ever was one.
