Summary:
Phoebe Sanders runs her own vintage dress shop. But while she stitches and repairs couture suits and glorious dresses, there is something in Phoebe’s own past that she cannot restore, and which is stopping her searching for love.
My take: 4 looks
Originally reviewed November 26, 2011
When I read The Secret Lives of Dresses, a member of my online reading group suggested this book. She was right!
Not only does this book make you like the characters (I really want to hang out with Annie and slap the face of Roxy), it makes you want to scour the local boutiques for some vintage pieces to mix and match with your everyday wear. So many designers were named that I was sure Wolff made them up. I felt compelled to Google them, and was pleasantly surprised that they were all real!
This was a winner for me, and highly recommended.
