R. C. Planck said OUTDATED!. I was all excited about this book, especially after reading the reviews. Boy, was I disappointed!!!!!!! This book is not only written with MEN ONLY in mind (all referenced made to men, pics of menswear, etc.), it must've been written at least FORTY YEARS ago. There are so many references to triple-ply 70's polyester and hippies, it seems horribly out of date and out of touch in the year "OUTDATED!" according to R. C. Planck.

Once past the hard sell drone of how important his topic and point was, the author has given me much of the information I originally sought. Wished that there was my pictures to demonstrate topics and one chapter refers to a chart that does not exist in the edition. these short commings aside, the book is authoritative and a help to me.
