This book is so good. It's more about getting dressed than being in style, and that's what makes it so compelling — while some of the contributors are, yes, “fashion people,” most of them are just regular women outside the industry. It's a collection of essays, anecdotes, interviews, photographs, illustrations about, as Heidi Julavits puts it, the “idiosyncratic and highly personalized beliefs” about why we wear what we wear. Everyone's in here: Kim Gordon, Cindy Sherman, Molly Ringwald, Tavi Gevinson, and several hundred other women you may or may not know. It's thoughtful, tender, and very smart.
