The Little Dictionary of Fashion by Christian Dior- yes Christian Dior- is 126 pages of genius. Classic fashion rules that will probably never die out are stated from A to Z. In the A's are the rules of accents, accesories, and even age. You can't forget ballgowns, the color blue, and blouses for the B's. I had purchased the very last one on the shelf at the University Book Store. It was on the very bottom shelf hidden behind a large a Coco Chanel book. I was so excited when I found it because I had been thinking whether to get it or not on Amazon. I bought it for $19.95 which seems expensive for a little book, but it has priceless fashion rules written by Christian Dior himself.
