Nonfiction Read-a-Thon book #4: Always in Fashion


I wanted to read this book to see what information I could learn from the author. Fashion is a huge business, whether its affordable items or luxury designer pieces someone is making a career out of it. And I thought it would be interesting to see what the author has to say about the industry.

Hopefully this will be a good read.
