Aprašymas

Author of the bestselling I Love Your Style, Amanda Brooks shares her personal coming-of-age stories including sartorial highs and lows told through the glamorous lens of the fashion world, with beautiful, eclectic, and inspired photographs throughout.

An authentic voice in the world of style and how-to books, Amanda Brooks’ I Love Your Style has been a fan favorite since publication in 2009. Since then, she has built a devoted following through her blog, Instagram, and beyond. Her unique and enviable yet accessible style has inspired thousands of women of all ages to find their own personal look and explore their identity through the clothes they love and wear.

In the past twenty years, Brooks has created a unique place for herself in the fashion world. She spent the early years of her career as a photo assistant for Patrick Demarchelier, a “gallerina” at the Gagosian Gallery, and at various fashion posts before finding her dream job as fashion director for Barney’s New York. Along the way—and wearing more than a few of the outfits we’ve all regretted at one point or another—Brooks discovered the key to creating her personal style, combining influences as wide-ranging as childhood prep school, Grateful Dead concerts, contemporary artists, pop culture, and her current home outside of the fashion bubble, a well-worn farmhouse she shares with her family (and a host of animals) in the English countryside.

In Always Pack a Party Dress, Brooks recalls her early career aspirations and explores the evolution of her own personal style along with stories of successes and failures alike, as well as fashion and beauty tips and inspiring photographs. A must-read for high fashion or street style aficionados, and gorgeously produced gift book, Brooks’ shares her expertise and insider view with warm, candid and often witty prose.
