Great Fashion Designs of the Forties Paper Dolls in Full Color : 32 Haute Couture Costumes by Hattie Carnegie, Adrian, Dior and Others (Paper Dolls)

Rating:
Summary: Beautiful renderings of couture fashions
Review: I love all of Tom Tierney's fashion paperdolls. The paperdoll models are great and the clothes are beautifully illustrated.This book covers examples of 40's day/evening wear. The movie star books-like Garbo and Crawford- feature costumes. I look for the costumes when I watch the old movies. There are some changes, but you know the outfits when they appear on screen! Each costume/fashion has the designer and year listed with it. I have most of his paperdoll books and made a costume from the Carmen Miranda book!!
