Book Summary
Costume designer Alison Freer’s styling kit is a magical bag
of tricks, built to solve every single wardrobe malfunction
on earth. TV and film productions wait for nothing, so her
solutions have to work fast. In How to Get Dressed,
Alison distills her secrets into a fun, comprehensive style
guide focused on rethinking your wardrobe like a fashion
expert and making what’s in your closet work for you. She
provides real-world advice about everything style-related,
including:
• Making every
garment you own fit better
• Mastering closet organization
• The undergarments you actually
need
• The scoop on tailors and
which alterations are worth it
• Shopping thrift and vintage
like a rockstar
Instead of repeating boring style
“rules,” Alison breaks the rules and gets real about
everything from bras to how to deal with inevitable fashion
disasters. Including helpful information such as how to skip
ironing and the dry cleaners, remove every stain under the
sun, and help clueless men get their sartorial acts
together, How to Get Dressed has hundreds of insider
tips from Alison’s arsenal of tools and expertise.
