[A] chic and comprehensive guide to all things dresses. A must-read fashionistas everywhere. "Glam.com"
In Erin McKean's frock-filled world, dresses are no mere body coverings but are the uniforms for secret lives. This glorious book sews together a story for every style and makes you look at your own wardrobe anew and wonder what adventures you should be having with your own dresses. "Ruth Singer, author of The Sewing Bible"
What a supremely witty, highly informative, and great-looking book this is! It made me want to be a woman. "Henry Alford, author of "Would It Kill You to Stop Doing That?": A Modern Guide to Manners"
Like any 100-best list, a book of iconic dresses invites potential quibbles with its selection criteria. Yet McKean and illustrator Mehalko have created a book so charming that any critic is completely disarmed . . . . In all its delightful chattiness, the book has something intelligent to say about fashion as representation and nostalgia. "Publishers Weekly""
