The Hundred Dresses: The Most Iconic Styles of Our Time by Erin McKean, Donna Mehalko

4.0

The Hundred Dresses is a book that talks about 100 iconic dresses over the course of time. This book includes J. Lo's infamous 2000 Grammy dress designed by Versace to Bjork's 2001 Oscar's swan dress designed by Marjan Pjoski. This book was a fun read! I learned quite a bit about designers I wasn't familiar with by name--but have long loved their clothes. Fashion people don't come after me but I didn't know who Mary Quant was before I read this book but I'm excited to learn about her- her dress "The Mary Quant" is one of my favorite styles. This book features super cute illustrations and the actual descriptions of the dresses are pretty hilarious. Comedy and Fashion all in one book- I'm in.
