I'm feeling ambivalent about this book, but I do love this:
'[T]here is a point in every wedding celebration when debauchery takes hold and removing one's jacket becomes perfectly acceptable...A good rule of thumb is that if the bride's parents have left the building and more than five women have removed their shoes'.

"[The nineties were] the first decade to begin actively recycling trends of previous eras."
I DISAGREE WITH THIS SO MUCH. Twiggy's movie The Boyfriend, saw the early 70s take inspiration from the 1920s; later it was the 1940s. The "silky bow blouse" Allison quotes as a staple of the 80s were first popular in the 40s, when women move en masse into the office. 1980s party wear lifts style from the 50s.

OMG. IT'S MINERAL DEPOSIT THAT CAUSES SPOTTING ON SILK. Ergo why I'd never had a problem in soft-water Melbourne. Mind. Blown.

Holy shit. Worth the price of admission for the safety pin/static cling tip alone.
